Morning all.
I believe I read not to long ago on the list a thread concerning logging failed logins and the reasons for the failure so that tech support personnel could assist customers? I do not recall the eventual outcome and or solution if any.
So, here is a more direct question for logging errors. We currently log the errors to our syslog. We monitor the log via a web interface so that our tech support can see when and why a customer is not getting a successful login, e.g. wrong username, puts in CAPS, adds spaces and the like and repeated efforts to hack into our system.
Is there a way to log only the failed attempts and the reason to a log so we can continue to have a quick and easy way to assist customers with failied logins as indicated above?
See the log_badlogins script in dialupadmin.
Thanks
