By default , the solaris inetd deamon does not log the IP address of the machines that are connecting to Solaris Server . To enable the logging of all the IP addresses of machines connecting to the server and the connection time the following changes can be incorporated
1. cd /etc/init.d
2. vi inetsvc
3. Change the last line in the file, ie
/usr/sbin/inetd -s &
to /usr/sbin/inetd -s -t &
4. Stop and Start that script
./inetsvc stop
./inetsvc start
5. vi /etc/syslog.conf
6 . Add the following line
deamon.notice /var/adm/name_of_log_file ( the two fields should be seperated by tabs )
7. touch /var/adm/name_of_log_file
8. kill -HUP syslogd
After these changes are made all connections that are started through the inetd deamon ( Telnet , FTP ) etc will be logged to the new file created
This is also very useful for auditing purposes with NTP protocol enabled which gives us a consistent time throughout the enterprise, accountability can be implemented in the organisation. |
