Title: Displaying VPN connections
Post by: Jason on June 11, 2003, 01:50:53 AM

What is the command for displaying the list of users currently connected via VPN?  I don't know what it is, but to be sure there has to be a way.  I can't find it anywhere.

Thanks in advance

you can count the number of connections simply by listing your network interfaces (ifconfig). All pppx connections should be vpn connections.

Thanks, but I'd also like to be able to see which user is connected.  I can see that there is a connection, but I don't know how to tell who it is.

I use this

tail -f /var/log/messages | grep "pppd"

to see when new people connect

cat /var/log/messages | grep "pppd"

to see the last people that have connected and how long.
