Monitoring connected users
Hello every body
Happy new year and merry christmass.
Is there a way to monitor the users who are connecting to a Solaris 2.8 Sun Spark workstation . I just need to monitor the users and the command they are usning during telnet or rsh to my workstation.
Cheers

history
Hello,

i think that you have to define a history file in users directory. there you can watch manually what they are doing.

you find your templates in the /etc/skel directory, there you can set the default history and size.

this files will be used by the useradd command.

maybe you think about to give the users more histfiles so that they become a histfile for every terminal they use.

best regards
