if root users cannot edit logs, the logs can ultimately get too big and fill up the filesystem --- is this what you want? or are you trying to secure the host and suspect some root users to be "less friendly?"

Basically, if you know who the the user is, you can try to create a chroot jail.
This prevents them from logging in using su to get privs and then editing files outside their new "root" directectory. However, user with root access can defeat a chroot jail. Here is an example for a ssh chroot jail: http://www.fuschlberger.net/programs...p-chroot-jail/
