RE: SSH Client to syslog: How to send

[Zvi Kave <zvi_kave@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Dennis,
 
For instance I execute this command from my iSeries - I want to get lines about this in Syslog or in another log file:
 ssh -f -l razloe 1.1.1.229 df -k                                                  
 razloe@xxxxxxxxx's password: Permission denied, please try again.                 
 razloe@xxxxxxxxx's password: Permission denied, please try again.                 
 razloe@xxxxxxxxx's password: Permission denied (publickey,gssapi-with-mic,password
 
The ideal thing is to get message in format of SSHD log:
sshd[209292]: Failed password for razloe from 1.1.1.229 port 44858 ssh2

Also if the command is successful, I expect to get a line in syslog.Perhaps like this:
sshd[209466]: Accepted publickey for raloe from 1.1.1.229 port 49627 ssh2

Regards,
 
Zvi

What are you trying to log?  Can you give a simple example or a little more
explanation of what you're trying to achieve?
