Where are ZM authentications logged?

I am using the opt_use_auth feature and have several users setup in ZM. I would like to check periodically to see who has logged in, how long they were logged in, etc.

The best I could find was looking at the /var/log/apache2/access.log and seeing different IP addresses coming in, but I was hoping for something a little easier to look at quick.

you might need to write a script for that one but try doing a

Code: Select all

grep

on on file

Coming in the next version or two will be a feature to have this information written to the DB as system events.

Thats cool, thank you.

For now, even if I need to write a script which greps for something, would this go into the access.log, or is it logged anywhere?

It is not. The simplest thing to do would be to edit web/includes/functions.php and put something in the userLogin function, or in web/includes/actions.php where that function is called.
