Re: Finding IP address of Failed Login Attempt -- SECURITY400

If your system is at V5R4 you should use the new CPYAUDJRNE command

instead

of DSPAUDJRNE. Once the file has been created use your favorite query to
select and print the fields you are interested in. The IP address from
where the request originated should be in the header section of each

*TYPE5

audit record.

Much like the screen capture, CPYAUDJRNE gives me a lot of blank fields,
but no IP address. Remote port shows 636, remote address is blank. Device
name, local name,

If you are on an earlier release you should first use CRTDUPOBJ
OBJ(QASYPWJ5) FROMLIB(QSYS) OBJTYPE(*FILE) TOLIB(QTEMP) to create a
physical file in QTEMP and then use DSPJRN with OUTFILFMT(*TYPE5) to

copy

the PW audit records to that file. The remaining steps to display the

data

will be the same as for V5R4.

If the device is at a signon display you can use the API QDCRDEVD.
quick example:
http://www.systeminetwork.com/isnetforums/archive/index.php?t-38125.html

If that is not possible you can setup a telnet exit program
A simple one can be found here:

topic=/rzaiw/rzaiwexitsample.htm

You would then just have to match up the time stamps to find the IP

address

We run a nightly report using DSPAUDJRNE ENTTYP(PW). This report has

ballooned to hundreds of pages because of one user id.

VIOLATION USER USER DEVICE REMOTE LOCAL NETWORK JOB

JOB
TYPE PROFILE NAME NAME NAME NAME

NAME USER
PW Q QTCP MATTHEW QTVDEVICE

QTCP

PW Q QTCP MATTHEW QTVDEVICE

QTCP

I've spoken with the user and he is unaware of these attempts. The

times

show that they occur at 2 minute intervals. I suspect that the user

was

signed in on a 5250 emulation session with reconnect enabled, changed

his

password on another session/terminal, and now the original device

keeps

retrying with an old password.

Is there a way to track down the IP address of these attempts, or even

the

workstation id that it is using? I've looked at the job log for
QTVDEVICE. It doesn't seem to give any info that would help me track

down

the origin. The sign on server doesn't show any entries in the job

log

and I can't seem to hit a decent search pattern on either Midrange.com

Google.
