      Is it possible within pfsense 2.0.1 to monitor the SSH user connection log?  Would like to easily see within the Web GUI which users are authenticating, date/time, etc.  I didn't notice an option within the Web UI to view this log.

      Thanks.

        Those show up in the normal system log.

          Thanks jimp.  Any chance of adding a SSHD tab in the next release?  Alongside OpenVPN, etc.  Figured it doesn't hurt to ask :)

            Maybe not 2.1, but perhaps for 2.2. Feel free to open up a feature request ticket at http://redmine.pfsense.org - target: future
