I recently installed mod_sftp as per the instructions from DA: http://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=439

However, I noticed that proftpd doesn't log the IP addresses of failed/invalid login attempts via sftp. Is there a way to do this?

For reference, here are the log locations:
/var/log/proftpd/sftp.log (this one is new)
/var/log/proftpd/auth.log

Thanks
 
Couldn't really find anything on proftpd's site about logging. At least not for mod_sftp.
 

As I said in the OP, a log is already created: /var/log/proftpd/sftp.log

So that basically means SFTPLog was already set. The problem is that it doesn't log user IP addresses and failed/invalid logins. There doesn't seem to be a LogFormat for mod_sftp :(

e: Ignore this thread, I'm a dummy. They still showed up in the security log!
