pc / server monitor for logs etc

Hi. I have setup in my arch: apache, sql, phpmyadmin and ssh server. I need a tool to administer and monitor the traffic and the Ips that connected specially to my ssh server. I need to see and analyze the logs. Is there a good monitoring and logging software? I use both Gnome and KDE. I need to see and the failed attempts to my sshd.

Thanks.

By the way, Is there any way to "revover" the classic login menu for phpmyadmin? I login in a classic htaccess/htpassword window and not in a classic phpmyadmin login menu like that:

Now I have this login menu (classic http server login menu) like this:

Re: pc / server monitor for logs etc

I'm not into GUI on a system facing the world, so I'm not able to help on that side. However you can open a terminal and tail the logs:
tail -f /var/log/mail.log /var/log/messages.log /var/log/httpd/access_log

Also a nice tool which emails a nice summary each day:
pacman -S logwatch
