I think you are inadvertently confusing the issue. ftpd is mentioned in
this file (see below), but still vsftpd is used:
[root at mx2 logrotate.d]# cat vsftpd.log
/var/log/vsftpd.log {
# ftpd doesn't handle SIGHUP properly
nocompress
missingok
}
/var/log/xferlog {
# ftpd doesn't handle SIGHUP properly
nocompress
missingok
}
As for me, vsftpd is logging to xferlog, and it is rotated normally
(CentOS 5.6) with the following settings in vsftpd.conf:
# The target log file can be vsftpd_log_file or xferlog_file.
# This depends on setting xferlog_std_format parameter
xferlog_enable=YES
# Switches between logging into vsftpd_log_file and xferlog_file files.
# NO writes to vsftpd_log_file, YES to xferlog_file
xferlog_std_format=YES
