Well nevermind then. Just /var/log/secure.

Also, is it cPanel by chance? Is cPHulk enabled?

Hey Keith
I'm afraid your language is just a bit ambiguous -- SFTP, as in FTP over SSH, 
or FTP, as in ProFTPd or Pure-FTPd?


If it's the former, then /var/log/secure will be the right place, but it'll 
show up as sshd. Here's what a failed login looks like on my CentOS VPS:

Jan 19 13:04:04 sta sshd[12164]: pam_unix(sshd:auth): check pass; user 
unknownJan 19 13:04:04 sta sshd[12164]: pam_unix(sshd:auth): authentication 
failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=ssh ruser= 
rhost=cpe-66-68-110-19.austin.res.rr.com 



If it's actual FTP, I believe that will be in /var/log/messages or something, 
depending on how it's configured.

Hi,

I've setup Iptables so only certain IP addresses can access our shell.  It 
works well for the handful of us that access the shell.


We also run SFTP.  So the IP for anyone needing FTP must be in the IP tables as 
well.

Today, I'm trying to configure someone remotely.  I added their IP address to 
the IPTables and helped them configure their FTP Client.  They are not able to 
connect.  It is unclear to me if it is a client or server issue.  So I am 
looking at the logs.




I'm running CentOS 5.6 and looking in /var/log/secure .  I see no entry for the 
failed access attempt.

Is there another log I should be looking in?

Thank you for your help!
