          I want to know how to set log file for all telnet session, if
          it is not set by default ? But by default if it sets up then
          where is the log file is stored.  Looking forward for user
          reply.

This has absolutely nothing to do with Texinfo (how did you find this
address?), but the general answer for Unix is, whatever telnet logs is
logged via syslog, so it depends on how you have syslog configured.
Generally it would end up in /var/log/messages or /var/adm/messages, and
is limited to a list of connections.

Also, don't use telnet, it sends passwords in the clear.

HTH,
karl
