Hello,
I hope someone can help me.
I run FreeBSD and apache.
To maintain my server I use SSH1.
However, I would like to know who logged in using SSH.
in the file /etc/ssh/ssh_config I would have:

	SyslogFacility AUTH
	LogLevel INFO

in the file /etc/syslog.conf I can set everything to be logged in 1 file
using:

	# uncomment this to enable logging of all log messages to /var/log/all.log
	*.*                                             /var/log/all.log

If I log everything to 1 log file the SSH log entries are there but what a
extra big file this would become.

Aug  2 19:27:49 www sshd[212]: log: Server listening on :: port 722.
Aug  2 19:27:49 www sshd[212]: log: Server listening on 0.0.0.0 port 722.
Aug  2 19:27:49 www sshd[212]: log: Server listening on :: port 22.
Aug  2 19:27:49 www sshd[212]: log: Server listening on 0.0.0.0 port 22.
Aug  2 19:27:49 www sshd[212]: log: Generating 768 bit RSA key.
Aug  2 19:27:50 www sshd[212]: log: RSA key generation complete.
Aug  2 19:28:41 www sshd[230]: connect from a122346.upc-a.chello.nl
Aug  2 19:28:41 www sshd[230]: log: Connection from 62.163.122.249 port 1454
Aug  2 19:28:46 www sshd[230]: log: Password authentication for raymond
accepted.
Aug  2 19:28:46 www sshd[230]: raymond from a122346.upc-a.chello.nl
(password authentication accepted)

Is there a possibillity to have all activity from SSH logged in a seperated
file.

I have tried the following in the file /etc/syslog.conf

	# SSH
	ssh.*                                           /var/log/ssh_log
and	sshd.*							/var/log/ssh_log

Both do not work.

Ok.
Thanks already for your reaction.

Raymond
