G'Day everyone,

quick question. Does the phpbb system have a log file that keeps track of all logins? I would like to find out who has logged in, what time they logged in, and possibly their IP Address if i can. I am hoping the log file tracks back at least 7 days. My forum has suffered an unauthorized attack, and im looking to find out who did it. If a log file does not exist, is there any other method i could use to find out this information?

Regards

I'm not a MySQL guru, so I don't know if that keeps any logs by default. I'm pretty sure phpbb itself doesn't keep a separate log.

Have you forgotten about the Abyss logfile? Every single page access should all be in your access.log file. If you know roughly when the attack happened, it should be trivial to find the offending requests in the access.log file.

Is this due to the recent exploit?
(I wont post it here because some asshat will go and hack accounts with it.)
If so disable BBCode.
