Hello
I would like to ask you for any assistance regarding sftp-server logging.
Till now i used openssh-4.4p1.sftplogging-v1.5.patch + openssh-4.4p1, that was later replaced by filecontroll patch. With openssh-4.4p1.sftplogging-v1.5.patch I could specify SFTP server logging in sshd_config like this:
LogSftp yes
SftpLogFacility LOCAL7
SftpLogLevel INFO
That did sftp logging like following:
Oct 10 11:57:20 vision sftp-server[23768]: opendir /home/reeusda/www
Oct 10 11:58:25 vision sftp-server[23768]: realpath /home/reeusda/www/1700
Oct 10 11:58:25 vision sftp-server[23768]: opendir /home/reeusda/www/1700

Oct 10 11:58:38 vision sftp-server[23768]: writing 32768 bytes to file
Stpfilecontrol patch doesn't have the described functionality, because as stated ": Openssh versions 4.4p1 and up provide sftp logging, so this has been taken out of the patch."
.... but also after setting LogLevel to DEBUG3, i cannot see the file logging info. Log looks like this
Mar 30 10:12:59 sftp2 sshd[18519]: [ID 800047 local7.info] Connection from 212.200.223.201 port 14170

...no info about chdir, fileopen, write, filedelete ...
I need to log file access, creation and deletion ... (audit reasons) This is needed for my service audit purposes.
Any RTFM hint if the logging granularity listed above is possible?
Thank you in advance
Alex
