UnixWare 7.1.1 comes with the TCP Wrapper installed and used by default.
It's the wrapper that is logging to syslog all telnet sessions, so if you
want to stop it from logging everything you can edit the
/etc/inetd/inetd.conf file and change the line
telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/in.tcpd in.telnetd
to
telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/in.telnetd in.telnetd
(This line is already in the file, it's just commented out, so you won't
even have to type much.)
Of course, when you do this you loose the benefits of the TCP Wrapper
facility. That may not be a problem for you, though...

level, though I'm not sure. Edit /etc/syslog.conf to exclude these
messages. I believe UnixWare sends everything of a debug level or higher to
/var/adm/syslog.
man syslog.conf for the gory details.

Recompile tcp-wrappers. In the Makefile, define something like
FACILITY= LOG_LOCAL3
Define the SEVERITY to what you want too.
Then in the syslog.conf file, you can control where tcp-wrapper logging
goes -- it can then be some log file other than syslog -- or nowhere.
