UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

Hi,

I am working on a project where i can commit the project filles using UNIX commands. Without my awareness some body has changed and commited the project files with my login credentials. Now I want to know the UNIX command to find out the last 10(or) more IP addresses that uses my project folders. In a brief UNIX CMND for knowing last 10 ip addresses that modified the files using a user account.

Thanks in advance.

This is somewhat error prone. Just because somebody got to your account doesn't necessarily tell you how.

Try using the "last" command (as root)... this will go through the wtmp logs (which many things logged to when somebody "comes in"). And often times what is in that log db will also have the originating IP. Of course, there are a ton of variables... but who knows, it may show you what you are looking for.

Try using

Code:

lastcomm

Code:

lastcomm userid

should give you the commands executed by a user

Hello,

It's a kind advice. Please do not share your passwords to any one. It is a security voilation as well as you need to pay heavily for it. So please be careful in future for same. Even if you want to share with your team members about a common user password, please prefer a password protected sheet. Do not write or keep a note of passwords too.



Thanks,
