Hi Paul,

Perhaps security audit journals might help?

SK (Sockets Connections) journal entries appear to record information for SSH connections, amongst others. The journal entry layout is defined here:

https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/ssw_ibm_i_74/rzarl/rzarlf57.htm

The column "Secure Version" identifies SSH as a possible value.

Not much, but maybe a starting point for you.

Best wishes,

Richard

Subject: SSH / SFTP client log

I'm trying to capture and document all SSH /SFTP connections.
Majority, the Power I is the client, so we are either putting or getting files from 3rd party remotes.

TRCCNN on port 22 is one ugly method, needs a lot of massaging.

A second method could be a scan of all joblogs searching for: "4900 - QSH CMD('/QOpenSys/bin/sftp"
A third method could be WRKWCH - comparison data "4900 - QSH CMD('/QOpenSys/bin/sftp"

Problem with methods 2 and 3, It would only have Job, date, time, no specific SSH/SFTP credentials.

A fourth method would be to add -vvv (verbose trace) to all SSH configs, then dump the output to a file, then filter out what is needed, possible but ugly like method 1.

Is there another cleaner method, that might include Remote IP, SSH/SFTP user, Open SSH details, etc ?

Thank You
