How to find out who did the modification

Hi guys,

In the UNIX work environment we have access other peoples directory and sometimes we have full
access to other people's files.

How can we find out , other than modification time that WHO did modification on any file ?

I know we can change the access of any file by chmod but sometimes we have to grant access to
others i mean group and others in unix terminology

thanks,
Nick

RANLIB(1)						      General Commands Manual							 RANLIB(1)

NAME
ranlib - table-of-contents for archive libraries SYNOPSIS
ranlib [-t] file ... DESCRIPTION
Ranlib creates a table of external references for archive libraries, normally used by the loader, ld(1). This table is is named ``__.SYMDEF'' and is prepended to the archive. Files in the archive which are not executable and symbols which are uninteresting to the loader are ignored. The options are as follows: -t Set the modification time of the __.SYMDEF file. This time is compared by the loader with the modification time of the archive to verify that the table is up-to-date with respect to the archive. If the modification time has been changed without any change to the archive (for example, by a cp(1)), the -t option can be used to ``touch'' the modification time so that it appears that the ta- ble is up-to-date.
