There is a bug in logging after a chroot. TO get around it
do this in /etc/rc.local:

	mkdir ~ftp/dev			# make sure umask correct
	rm ~ftp/dev/log 		# just in case
	ln /dev/log ~ftp/dev/log	# hard link necessary

I have a note saying this is fixed in 4.4BSD. I don't know about other
versions of UNIX.
