-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm guessing from what you are saying that what you are trying to do is to have a user's login shell record all input and output right? If so, all you have to do is to have the startup script exec the script program, taking care to pass the -l option to the shell so it gets treated as a login shell. In other words, a new shell does get executed, but because you used the exec command the old one is completely replaced by it. You want to be careful though so you don't acceidentally end up creating a situation where the script program gets executed an infinite number of times. There are a couple of options for this, immediately files and environment variables come to mind. - -- It's not one damn thing after another, it's the same damn thing over and over.

I've been trying to do this just to see if its actually possible, however no luck as of yet. I'm attempting to set a user's login shell to a script, which then executes script -f > somefile. However, that didn't work as I thought it was going to. My next idea was to place a script within the homedir tree, owned by Root that would execute the script command line.
