          The command, in a terminal window, journalctl /usr/sbin/sshd will show you log messages like (I am user walt, and just did a ssh localhost):



          Feb 04 09:33:54 bat sshd[17129]: pam_ecryptfs: pam_sm_authenticate: /home/walt is already mounted
          Feb 04 09:33:54 bat sshd[17129]: Accepted password for walt from 127.0.0.1 port 52642 ssh2
          Feb 04 09:33:54 bat sshd[17129]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session opened for user walt by (uid=0)

            You can try pinky
            apt install pinky
            The use is straightforward - just execute
            pinky in terminal.
