Restore logging of SSH logins
Authored by: GlowingApple on Oct 14, '05 09:56:38AM
Great hint! I've been wondering why I couldn't see ssh attempts myself. I also recommend adding auth.* ... /var/log/auth.log towards the end of the file (in my case below the local0.* line) so that any of these log entries will not only be added to the main system log file, but also to an individual file reserved for auth log entries. This way all of my sshd log entries can be easily read together in /var/log/auth.log without the other entries crowding things up.
