History to Another file [local user history , but root access]
Hi all,
My need is :
1. To know who , when , which command used.
2. Local user should not delete this information.
[The thing is , here we have a number of employees working in root permission.!!! And we are not actually getting who is doing which command and all...]
I mean , with an example , i can say
i have a user user1
i need to give all the following permissions to user1, :
a. A specific directory other than his home directory.
b. To edit /etc/profile
c. And/Or any other specific files/dirs.
user1's history will be saved in ~/.bash_history
user1 will have -rw-------. permission to ~/.bash_history
So there is a chance that he may delete the file itself / delete the content.
And so , i am thinking to do like..
i will have another file somewhere , say , /var/.bash_hist_user1
so automatically , What are all the commands entering by user1 should come inside /var/.bash_hist_user1 also.
OR ELSE
What are all the commands entering by user1 will come in ~/.bash_history
But he cannot delete the file / content.
Is it possible ?
^^^ Copied from the closed thread
Can someone give the solution for HP-UX ?

Hi,
I need to access a user's command history. However, the dilemma is that he is logged in and so his current history is not yet flushed to .bash_history file which gets flushed when he logs out. Is there a way I can still access his most recent history?
thank you,

set_color(1) fish set_color(1) NAME
set_color - set_color - set the terminal color set_color - set the terminal color Synopsis set_color [-v --version] [-h --help] [-b --background COLOR] [COLOR] Description Change the foreground and/or background color of the terminal. COLOR is one of black, red, green, brown, yellow, blue, magenta, purple, cyan, white and normal. o -b, --background Set the background color o -c, --print-colors Prints a list of all valid color names o -h, --help Display help message and exit o -o, --bold Set bold or extra bright mode o -u, --underline Set underlined mode o -v, --version Display version and exit Calling set_color normal will set the terminal color to whatever is the default color of the terminal. Some terminals use the --bold escape sequence to switch to a brighter color set. On such terminals, set_color white will result in a grey font color, while set_color --bold white will result in a white font color. Not all terminal emulators support all these features. This is not a bug in set_color but a missing feature in the terminal emulator. set_color uses the terminfo database to look up how to change terminal colors on whatever terminal is in use. Some systems have old and incomplete terminfo databases, and may lack color information for terminals that support it. Download and install the latest version of ncurses and recompile fish against it in order to fix this issue. Version 1.23.1 Sun Jan 8 2012 set_color(1)
