Please note that I'm very mad at nobody in particular right now, so if I come across POed, please forgive me.


I logged into s3 today to find that nobody was logged in. Then I checked s2, same thing. When I connected to s1, I was greeted by about 180 channels, all of which had titles that flamed me and a few other admins I had helping me to moderate my three TS servers. The first thing I did was check to see who was logged in last. Last to login was indeed an admin, but it stated that he logged in on "18-01-2005 20:11:32". I knew it couldn't have been him because he didn't have computer access all of yesterday. Someone had figured out his password and made the changes. As if this wasn't annoying enough, they logged into the web panel and completely screwed over all of the server permissions and settings.

So, for the past hour, I've been trying to remember what my settings were originally, all the while being so mad I could hardly type. I came here to ask if there was any way you guys could add an extensive logging system to the TS2 Server that included, at the very least: all admin actions (preferably admin session times as well) and all IP addresses.

Is this possible? It would've helped in my investigation, though I've already figured out who it is, since my firewall logs all incoming and outgoing connections, but it really would've been faster and easier to have had a log that I could view via the web panel and/or the context menu on the tray icon.

Also you might want to consider backups on a regular basis.

what is mentioned in the FAQ about loging, is all you can currently log (IP's can be logged !).
