As far as I know, /dev/ttyv* are the local virtual consoles.
SSH login attempts would be on /dev/ttyp*. So if you're sure
it's on ttyv0, this is your system / primary console (first
virtual console) which needs physical access to be used. But
I'm sure there would be a strange way to pass something from
or to /dev/ttyv0 using... redirection maybe?

Are you sure that nobody tried to use your computer physically?

Where did you get this evidence from?

Check /var/log/auth.log and /var/log/xfer.log and /var/log/ftpd.log
(if you're running FTP services).

I did not try login in on that terminal.  Are they able to try to do it away
from my computer, from a remote location?

Can someone tell me how to turn off the broadcast option for my lan, if it's
possible.  I think a server named chill is attacking me.


cat /var/log/auth.log ?
