Capturing log of a shell script
Hi,
I have a script which does multiple tasks in sequence. When i execute the script, it runs and displays lot of messages for each of the steps on the console. Is there any way I can capture those messages and store it for audit purposes ?
Best Regards,

audit_warn
AUDIT_WARN(5) BSD File Formats Manual AUDIT_WARN(5)
NAME
audit_warn -- alert when audit daemon issues warnings
DESCRIPTION
The audit_warn script runs when auditd(8) generates warning messages.
The default audit_warn is a script whose first parameter is the type of warning; the script appends its arguments to
/etc/security/audit_messages. Administrators may replace this script: a more comprehensive one would take different actions based on the
type of warning. For example, a low-space warning could result in an email message being sent to the administrator.
FILES
/etc/security/audit_warn
/etc/security/audit_messages

audit(4), auditd(8)

The OpenBSM implementation was created by McAfee Research, the security division of McAfee Inc., under contract to Apple Computer Inc. in
