[SOLVED] Can SFTP file transfers be logged?
I'm running an SFTP server using openssh. In the logs I can see when connections are made, but I can't see the names of the specific files that were transfered. Is it possible to log that information, and if so, how?

OK, I found the info I was looking for here, but.... where does it log to? I don't have anything in /var/log, or anywhere else I can think to look.

Sorry to be a bother. After further searching I discovered that syslog-ng isn't installed by default.

Without syslog-ng, the data should have been in the journal, which you can recall with journalctl
