How to make the logfiles talk

On Sunday afternoon, I sat in front of my girlfriends computer quite a 
distance away.
uucico starting, modem connects, waiting for login, got that, waiting for 
word, and plash.

Okay, Sunday evening at home, looking for the reason:

/var/log/mgetty.ttyS2  has no entry.
/var/spool/uucp/Log    has no entry.

Ummpff. How do I set up the system that it actually logs failed logins?
