On my 9.1 system, /etc/syslog.conf contains: auth.info;authpriv.info /var/log/auth.log These facilities are both logging to /var/log/auth.log. Your stated goal was logging of failed ssh attempts to your host. The above line in syslog.conf accomplishes this by sending the message to /var/log/auth.log. TCPWrappers will have no effect on logging of failed ssh attempts unless sshd is configured to run via inetd. I recommend pf or ipfw for filtering access to ssh. -- Take care Rick Miller _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
