If not configured otherwise the vsftpd log file is located at
/var/log/vsftpd.log.  To monitor activity you can use tail:

	% tail -f /var/log/vsftpd.log

which is far from optimal on systems with high user load.  AFAIK,
there is no administrative command to see who's currently logged on
(like ftpwho for wuftp).

PS: Please do not top-post.  Thanks.
