I'm trying to turn on logging on our Cisco 837 ADSL routers to populate my syslog server. I have set these up as LAN-to-LAN's which connect to our Cisco 3000 concentrator. I have added the code below to the routers config, but the only time my syslog server will receive anything is when I log off the router via telnet. I want any loggins via telnet logged or login failures logged, what do I need to do?

logging trap debugging
logging facility local4
logging source-interface Ethernet0
logging 192.168.0.1
 
Well I appreciate your hard work in trying to enable logging to the syslog server but friend you missed out some important config steps which I generally refer directly from the cisco’s database of immense knowledge and solutions. I would suggest you to please follow the link and find the solution for yourself.

I know about the Concentrator 3000, thats all working and setup right and has been sending to the syslog server. I'm talking about the Cisco routers out in the internet we have, I configure them through telnet either by their "inside" address or "outside" static internet address. If I make a config change or logout of the telnet session the syslog server receives this info and emails the IT team someone has been on the router etc. However, I just can't get it to log when someone logs into the router via telnet or is failing to log in like a hacker.

 
do you use tacacs?
im not sure if the router can log failed login attempts...
the tacacs server may be able to.
