For security purposes, I need to log failed and successful login attempts on the forum.  How can this be accomplished?

I already have logging enabled for the functions already supported.

You could edit the login_user.asp file and call the logging function when a failed or not failed login attempt is done:-

Call logAction(strUsername, "Login failed")

This will save the action to the forums log file. You do not need to include time or IP as the logging function include that for you in the log file.
