Hi, I have observed a strange problem. When ever I am running some tools on a product which we have developed, files are getting deleted in that system. We suspect that the tool may be doing it so. The tool is a network test tool runs on windows machine and the product runs on the linux machine. I want to log when ever a directory is being accessed, and also log the operations that are done on that directory. I don't know how to configure the syslog for this type of requirement. Any better ideas in identifying the problem is appreciated. Kindly help me. regards Suresh V.V Suresh Kumar -- ______________________________________________ IndiaInfo Mail - the free e-mail service with a difference! www.indiainfo.com Check out our value-added Premium features, such as an extra 20MB for mail storage, POP3, e-mail forwarding, and ads-free mailboxes!
