Port trigger notification

[omareo]

Hi,

Is it possible to configure PC Monitor to send an email notification when a connection on a certain port in established, for example when an RDP or FTP session is established

Hello,

You can write a plugin to send an email if multiple sessions are detected, however on a workstation machine I'm not sure how to achieve this as all RDP are limited to one session. For the FTP monitoring it's difficult for PC Monitor to know what other application is doing, the best approach is to make your FTP server write to window's Event Log and then have PC Monitor scan for that particular event id. If it doesn't support that try making it log to file only when somebody connects to your server then have a plugin monitor that file and have it notify you.

If you need some help or you don't know where to get started with PC Monitor plugins why not check out the tutorial located here.

Good Luck,

Paul.

I was also looking for a notification on RDP connection and disconnection.

You can create an event log notification trigger for the following events to get notified when RDP starts and ends:

Logon: Microsoft-Windows-RemoteDesktopServices-RDPCoreTS/Operational Informational Event ID# 131

Logoff: Microsoft-Windows-RemoteDesktopServices-RDPCoreTS/Operational Informational Event ID# 102
