Re: Failed logins in Debian 8 (old-stable)

Mats,

Thanks for the helpful reply.

On inspection, rsyslog.conf and the contents of rsyslog.d pre-date Debian 7.



The messages with respect to successful ipop3d and imapd usage in mail.log
are still present.  Only the failed login messages, formerly in
/var/log/auth.log, have gone missing.  Anyone know of a way to spy on calls
to syslog(3)?

Thanks all,

Ken

Have you checked configuration of syslog, e.g. syslog.conf? imapd sends its
log messages to syslog, and syslogd will save them into files. Enable
logging of all facilities into different log files on INFO level to see
where they go.
