Sudo log
Hello,
Is it possible to configure the sudo log to register the logname instead of
the username?
I mean, if user A logs and su (switch user) to user B and then uses SUDO
to execute commands, the log will register actions of user B. What I need
is to register these actions as being executed by user A.
Is it possible?
Thanks in advance,
C.

It is crazy when you just entered a command example sudo or su or even ps. It will flood your /var/log/messages. Please see duplicate entries except for the pid. At 1 specific time.

gst-register
gst-register-0.8(1) User Commands gst-register-0.8(1)
NAME
gst-register-0.8, gst-register - register GStreamer plugins
SYNOPSIS
gst-register-0.8 [gst-std-options]
gst-register [gst-std-options] [--gst-list-mm] [--gst-mm=string] [--print]
DESCRIPTION
gst-register-0.8 registers all of the GStreamer plugins on your system. gst-register-0.8 creates a listing of their properties so that on
startup of GStreamer-based applications, you do not need to load plugins until you need them.
When run as the root user, gst-register-0.8 creates the Global GStreamer plugin registry which is stored in /var/cache/gstreamer-X.X/reg-
istry.xml, where X.X is the GStreamer major and minor version number.
When run as a user other than the root user, gst-register-0.8 creates a user registry ~/.gstreamer-X.X/registry.xml, where X.X is the
GStreamer major and minor version number.
Programs that uses GStreamer use the user plugin registry if it exists, and use the Global plugin registry if not.
gst-register is a wrapper script that runs the latest installed version of gst-register-X.X. For example, if both gst-register-0.7 and gst-
register-0.8 are installed on your system, gst-register runs gst-register-0.8.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported by gst-register-0.8 and gst-register:
gst-std-options Standard options available for use with most GStreamer applications. See gst-std-options(5) for more information.
The following options are supported by gst-register only:
--gst-list-mm List found major/minor versions. This option displays the versions that are available.
--gst-mm=string Force major/minor version. This option enables you to specify a specific version to run, if you do not want to run the
default version.
--print Print wrapped command line. This option displays the command that will be run, and then runs the command.
EXAMPLES

/usr/bin/gst-register-0.8
FILES
The following files are used by this application:
/usr/bin/gst-register-0.Executable to register GStreamer plugins
/usr/bin/gst-register Wrapper script that runs the latest installed version of gst-register-X.X
/var/cache/gstreamer-X.XGStreamer.global plugin registry, where X.X is the GStreamer major and minor version number.
~/.gstreamer-X.X/registrGStreamer user plugin registry, where X.X is the GStreamer major and minor version number.
