Hi all,
given the prevalence of attempted attacks on my test server using various username/password combinations with ssh, I am curious if there are logs to record such activities? I am using Redhat Linux 9.0.

Thanks for your time.

Cheers!

check your /var/log/messages for lines like this:
Dec 1 15:10:03 charlie sshd(pam_unix)[2510]: authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=NODEVssh ruser= rhost=localhost.localdomain
