Ftp-server under attack notification

How would you detect that? Is there an event log entry written each time there's a failed login? If so, the event log watch could help but it will send a notification first time only.

The best way is to write a client plugin for it.

Most FTP servers have anti hammering technology which automatically filters the client's IP Address in case he types wrong account details too many times in a short time period. As Marius said the best way would be a plugin that implements your FTP Server's public API (if it has) or you could monitor the events, or you can make a plugin that reads the text from a log file and sends you a plugin if something matches your query.

The PC Monitor client API has endless possibilities, you only need to find the most appropriate way to approach your problem.
