Re: [Openvpn-users] Openvpn simple tracking script

[dassey@xxxxxxxxx]

Your da man Erich, thanks. With the given info i was able to look at the tech needed to build some pretty simplistic scripts. here is the ones i am using:

(client-disconnect)
#!/bin/bash

echo Sent=${bytes_sent} $'\n'Received=${bytes_received} $'\n'Duration=${time_duration} >> /etc/openvpn/scripts/${common_name}

(client-connect)
#!/bin/bash

touch /etc/openvpn/scripts/${common_name}
chmod 777 /etc/openvpn/scripts/${common_name} 
echo Connected=${time_ascii} >> /etc/openvpn/scripts/${common_name}

Ill get better scripts as i finish reading the shell scripting book i downloaded ;)

If anyone happens to know why ${time_ascii} and ${time_duration} are not echoing to the file, let me know...not needed, but useful

Thanks again Erich

Those are connect/disconnect scripts that you can place, for example, in
a scripts directory, let's say /etc/openvpn/scripts (don't forget to
make them executable)

You make those scripts available to openvpn with the client-connect and
client-disconnect directive in the server config file. The logs are the
written to wherever your syslog config file sends the (in this instance)
local3 logs, either local or remote.

If you need more info contact me off list, as this then becomes OT

cheers

Erich
