ssh trail
hi need you advise...

in my company, we have to use mgmt server in order to access to other servers. so basically we need to login to our mgmt server (solaris) before we ssh to any other servers.

my boss ask me to do some reporting on who access some "specific servers" by weekly. any idea how do i retrieve this info from?

i'm thinking to do script that running ps -ef|grep "specific servers" every 10 sec. do you guys think this is a good idea?

Learn about the last command

Or if you want C code, look into the manpage for utmp

Don't run a ps every ten seconds unless the last command fails to show history.

last command only shows where the users coming from not where the users ssh to.

Wrong End
Why not add code to .profile on the target machines to record logon and logoff
times, and ip address that originated the request.

I think that jim was referring to running the 'last' command on the "specific servers" that your boss wants the reports for. Not on the management server itself.
