Tail User
Ok i looked through quite a few posts but could not find what i was looking for so forgive me if this post can be found elese where...
I would like to use a command like tail view what users are doing in the system i have quite a few dba's that come come to my office and do work on the system and i would like to see exactly what they are doing, and if at all posible dump everything to a log so that if they are doing somthing that they should not be doing i will be able to find out, somthing that would go into so much detail that you would be able to see what command that they execute.... Would be so much help i might be able to point the finger at the correct person... Thanks in advance |

Here's a thought, which will work the best if you have root access.
You could check the .sh_history file under the user's home directory as to what was happening with that account in the shell recently. This type of logging is present on our AIX, PTX, and HP-UX systems, but I'm not sure if it's a feature with all unix flavors. I'm not positive, but I think there are ways to retain more or less days worth of history in that file. Hope this helps... |

Tail user
well i found this file in user's home directory
/home/%username% .sh_history In any case i would do the following more /home/%username%/.sh_history or cd /home/%username% more .sh_history and its .sh_history not sh_history |
