I think you want this...
Code:
alias ls="/bin/ls $@;date >> <PATH_OF_THE_LOG>/log.txt"

similarly do for other commands

psg telnetd | awk '{
system("print("%s",$0)>> /u/bin/Test") }'


it shows an error like this
it shows error
awk: Cannot divide by zero when using the modulo operator.
The input line number is 1.
The source line number is 18.

Mr . Anteus,

Please don't multipost your question in different posts.

Code:
 print("%s",$0)

wont work .

try something like this :

Code:
awk '{print "print " $0 >> "op" ;system("chmod +x op");\
 system("./op >> /u/bin/Test"); system("rm op") }'

did u try in this way ?..

Code:
psg telnetd  | awk '{print "print " $0 >> "op" ;system("chmod +x op");\ system("./op >> /u/bin/Test"); system("rm op") }'

For your requirement i think , there is no need to use system command. Just to show u the usage of that i have given you the solution.

below code do your job

Code:
psg telnetd  | awk '{ print $0 }'  >> /u/bin/Test
