Lightbulb Is it possible to create audit trail on remote server using FTP

Hi,

I'm automatically FTPing few files daily as a cron job to a remote server.

I wanted to know if there is a way to log the successful transfer in a log on the remote server?

The log on the remote server should look something like this.
10/30/2006 00:00:02 - File 1 transferred successfully on 30-oct-2006
10/31/2006 00:00:02 - File 2 transferred successfully on 31-oct-2006
.
.
.
and so on


Is it possible to append a line to a file on remote server through FTP? Smilie

Thanks,
Dayanand.

ZOS-REMOTE.CONF(5)					  System Administration Utilities					ZOS-REMOTE.CONF(5)

NAME
zos-remote.conf - the audisp-racf plugin configuration file DESCRIPTION
zos-remote.conf controls the configuration for the audispd-zos-remote(8) Audit dispatcher plugin. The default location for this file is /etc/audisp/zos-remote.conf, however, a different file can be specified as the first argument to the audispd-zos-remote plugin. See aud- ispd-zos-remote(8) and auditd(8). The options available are as follows: server This is the IBM z/OS ITDS server hostname or IP address port The port number where ITDS is running on the z/OS server. Default is 389 (ldap port) user The z/OS RACF user ID which the audispd-zos-remote plugin will use to perform Remote Audit requests. This user needs READ access to FACILITY Class resource IRR.LDAP.REMOTE.AUDIT (See audispd-zos-remote(8)). password The password associated the the z/OS user ID configured above. timeout The number in seconds that audispd-zos-remote plugin will wait before giving up in connection attempts and event submissions. The default value is 15 q_depth The audispd-zos-remote plugin will queue inputed events to the maximum of q_depth events while trying to submit those remotely. This can handle burst of events or in case of a slow network connection. However, the audispd-zos-remote plugin will drop events in case the queue is full. The default queue depth is 64 - Increase this value in case you are experiencing event drop due to full queue (audispd-zos-remote will log this to syslog). SEE ALSO
