any HP - UX keyloggers??

Jeff Nyberg — Mon, 04 Mar 2002 16:09:43 GMT

I want to be able to monitor the keystrokes entered by a 3rd party when they dial into our K box via modem.
Has anyone run across any keyloggers for HP-UX? I'm finding several for Unix, but from hacking sites and such, which I don't trust unless I know someone who took the plunge ahead of me.
I'm hoping I can just point the software to monitor the ports where the modems are connected.

Thanks in advance!!

check out the man page for "script". You can activate it in the .profile for their login. I would also change the permissions on the .profile of their login ID to take away write permissions so they cannot change it.

You could use "script", but there would be nothing to prevent them from clobbering the file via a "cat /dev/null > scriptfilepath".

What kind of 3rd party stuff were you looking at?

Script looks to be ok for basic logging of screen outputs, but I'm hoping for something a little more in depth. Unless there is something there I was missing...........

Harry- I haven't looked at any 3rd party stuff seriously. The only one I found from a reputable company was bundled into a $5k software package I don't need. Everything else I find for Unix is from hacking sites or it is for a WinXX machine. I'll look into any recommendations. Thanks!
