Trigger on someones ligon

[Klaas D. Eenkhoorn]

Hi all,

Is it possable to place a trigger on the event of someones logon to the system ?
And if this is possible how do you do that.

The question is, we have an account for external parties for remote support.
Now we would like to know when this account is used, for how long and if possible what they have done.

The account uses csh.

Can someone help ?

You could put something in their .login to notify you or in csh's /etc/profile equivalent (sorry - I can't remember what it is) to test if this was that particular account and notify you.

Ahh! Found it: /etc/csh.login.

Klass,
have you read:

This explains how you can monitor the user actions.
The 'last' command is a quick way to show users login and connect time.

Well through the link jou've given i've found a tool called ttyrec.
For me this would be an solution but this tool must bee compiled before it can be used with a gcc compiler.
I do'nt have this compiler.

Does someone have the tool compiled allready including the player ?
I have hpux 11.11.

Attached is a gzipped tar archive of

ttyplay, ttytime and ttyrec

assuming those are what you want. It's release 1.0.6 built on HP-UX 11.11

Is in normal that ttyrec is slow on response ?
It seems to hang during use.

I have no idea, I've never actually run it, I just built it for you!

Hi Klaas,

Take a look at this forum:

I've used the option of sending an e-mail using the csh.login profile.
