Track SSH/SFTP Bandwidth

James Drews shared this idea 12 years ago
Open Discussion

right now pure-ftp has it's bandwidth tracked, but if folks use ssh/sftp, it is not.


sshd can turn on logging of transfers in /etc/ssh/sshd_conf change :

Subsystem sftp /usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server


to


Subsystem sftp /usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server -l INFO


Now the log in /var/log/messages can be used to get the data (best if it corolates with /var/log/secure so you can attribute the usage to the right account)

Nice!

Please cPanel, do consider and implement this.

Any chance we could get it any time soon? When?

Thanks,
