can't find tcpd messages in system logs

[Brian Sammon <debian-user-post@brisammon.fastmail.fm>]

According to various tcpd docs (manpage, READMEs) it logs information via 
syslog.
However, when I do 'grep -i tcpd /var/log/*' I see nothing.

I have tcpd 7.6.dbs-8 and sysklogd 1.4.1-17 on my machine.

I have stripped my /etc/syslogd.conf down to the following single line, (and 
restarted inetd) and still nothing:
   *.debug                         -/var/log/debug

I get messages in /var/log/debug from various other programs and daemons, but 
nothing I can recognize as being from tcpd.

What should I be looking for in my log files?  Am I looking for the wrong 
thing, or should I conclude that something is not working right?  Or (C), none 
of the above?


Miscellaneous possibly useful details:
x86 machine
running a mix of Sarge and testing packages, with a few older ones mixed 
in--Apt does not complain.
