Yes Peter, that should have been /EVENT=LOGFAIL, not BREAKIN

But I still don't see the attempted username until I reach breaking limit.

My problem is that I have users who are preventing people in the whole shop
to log in, by locking up the IP port (source) from where all users of
handheld devices are logging in.
I thought that if I had the username information they are using, maybe (just
maybe) I would have an idea if they do that by mistake or by intent.
Right now I unlock (delete/intrusion) the port at interval. I don't like
that but I can't have everyone in there locked up when they change shifts
and try to log in.
