Heres a bit of my log :(host is the servers hostname) Nov 4 08:17:54 host sshd(pam_unix)[2945]: session opened for user root by (uid=0) Nov 4 08:17:55 host sshd(pam_unix)[2945]: session closed for user root Nov 4 08:20:55 host sshd(pam_unix)[2991]: session opened for user root by (uid=0) Nov 4 08:20:55 host sshd(pam_unix)[2991]: session closed for user root Nov 4 08:23:56 host sshd(pam_unix)[3035]: session opened for user root by (uid=0) Nov 4 08:23:56 host sshd(pam_unix)[3035]: session closed for user root Nov 4 08:26:56 host sshd(pam_unix)[3205]: session opened for user root by (uid=0) Nov 4 08:26:57 host sshd(pam_unix)[3205]: session closed for user root Nov 4 08:29:57 host sshd(pam_unix)[3249]: session opened for user root by (uid=0) Nov 4 08:29:57 host sshd(pam_unix)[3249]: session closed for user root Thanks, Neil. -- Neil Marjoram.
