Re: How can you determine if a user is connecting via 'telnet' or 'ssh'?



Can someone tell me what to use to 'read' the failedlogin file?
Thanks,

We want to limit access to telnet to certain fixed
IP address which are local 'ethernet' terminals.
I also would like to keep my PROCOMM Plus software working.

The quick solution would to use tcp wrappers and log everything to
different log files. You can lock the telnet sessions down to
particular IP's that way, and get a log of all login activity.

It's free and is easy to set up.
