[opensuse] ftp Logging?
I made some content available to friends via my ftp server, and I'd like to find out who logged on. I know there must be some logging done, but I can't find where it's recorded. Can someone point me to the right location? Last time I was in the YaST module for the ftp server, I turned on verbose logging. Will I be sorry I did that? All I want to know is what files were downloaded, and maybe some performance data. Thanks to anyone with a clue! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

The answer depends on which ftp server you are using. Assuming it is vsftpd, then edit /etc/vsftpd.conf, and add or change: syslog_enable=YES xferlog_enable=YES entries will be made to the syslog detailing who logs in and what they down/upload. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

Unless this content (and everything else accessible remotely via "password-protected" access) is of zero or near-zero sensitivity or value, you'd be well advised to make it available only via a secure protocol such as SFTP or scp.
