Log Failed Admin Control Panel Logins to File

[Zelda-King]

How exactly do I do that? I made a blank 'badlogins.log', uploaded it to the admincp directory and CHMODed it to 666. When I make a failed login though I just get an 'invalid file' prompt.

What value do you have in the acp options? In your case it should be "badlogins".

I put 'admincp/badlogins.log' as the path.

EDIT: Fixed it, thanks! I shouldn't have had '.log' at the end.

Seeing this thread has made me interested in doing this... How would I go about doing this?

Check options.

Yeah, under vBulletin Options look near the bottom under 'Error Handling & Logging' then type the location of the file to write to in the 'Log Failed Admin Control Panel Logins to File' text window.
