Jun 11 18:48:52 hanna com.apple.SecurityServer: Failed to authorize
right system.login.tty by process /usr/sbin/sshd for authorization
created by /usr/sbin/sshd.
Jun 11 22:33:58 hanna com.apple.SecurityServer: authinternal failed
to authenticate user amanda.
The user names are random (including root and admin) indicating that
it's someone trying to get into my machine.
Can I change the logging level to show the connection attempts to at
least see the IP the cracker is trying to access my system from?
I'm confident in my passwords but this has caused an related issue in
that an installer that need to authenticate as an admin user fails
because my admin user (admin) has has 5 failed authentication attempts.
I'm now going to change my admin username to something random. Can I
reset the failed authentication mechanism to allow my installer to run??
