Where are log of accessing ?

Post by jcpamart » Fri Dec 10, 2021 11:51 am

Hi,
I'm using openvpn on a debian 11 installed on a VPS in France.
My open VPN have in DMZ all the ports for my mail server, cause the IP of the VPS is clean.
Since 2 days, I have a hacker try to get inside my mail server using brute force.
I have ban somes IP I found in /var/log/syslog
But it's look like not resolve my problem.

So the question is, where can I find the log file recording all IP's coming in the openvpn ?

Thanks for your help.
Best regards

One of your VPN clients is trying to hack your mail server ?

No, not a vpnclient, just another IP somewhere in the world....

Openvpn is not a firewall.
