Hi all,


Background:

Looking into Logs, couldn't see where a user logging in via Web or App is authenticated positively or negatively. Probably user error on my part not finding or seeing it?


The Ask:

Is there an easy way to locate and/or alert when a user accesses SS?


Thank you!!

    For each authenticated request, you will get a message in the web log like this, which includes the account username:

    26/10/2024 14:11:07 user@212.53.151.192 GET /++image?cameraNum=9&codec=heif&width=532

    You won't get a message for each rejected request, but you will get a message when a particular client is automatically blocked due to excessive failed login attempts, like this:

    03/12/2024 12:07:30 Client at 192.168.1.5 temporarily blocked due to 10 connections with failed authentication

    The web log file can be found at ~/SecuritySpy/Web/WebLog.txt
