Fwd: SSHD logging on Solaris 8?

[Eric N. Valor]

Sorry to send this to the wrong list.  But it appears that the general list 
is mostly utilized as a SPAM vector and/or is absentee moderated (the 
message has yet to make it to the archives, despite being dated days 
earlier than messages which are there).  In any event, I'd like to know if 
anyone could provide me with some more information than is available in the 
manpages, FAQ, and other on-line guides.
