Another thought is this: Usually, an account must have root authority to run the shutdown/init/halt processes, anyhow. Assuming that your regular users don't, already, have root access to the system(s) in question, you could restrict access to those commands via sudo. Commands issued via sudo are logged in /var/log/secure, and appear something like this: May 15 06:00:02 burgers sudo: mburger : TTY=unknown ; PWD=/home/mburger ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/usr/lib/mailman/bin/list_members somecommand On Fri, May 19, 2006 2:20 pm, Fábio Augusto wrote: > Hi Emilio, > > Thanks a lot, I think it will help a lot! :) > > Regards! > > 2006/5/19, Emilio Casbas <ecasbas@xxxxxxx>: >> >> Fábio Augusto wrote: >> > Good Morning List, >> > >> > I would like to check if there is a way to create a log for the >> > shutdown/init/halt command, where every time the machine is restarted >> or >> > halted, I can check which user has submitted the turn off command. >> > >> > Regards >> > >> Good Afternoon :) >> >> Why do you want create the log if they've already exist? >> >> #man last >> #man wtmp >> >> Thanks >> Emilio C. >> >> >> -- >> redhat-list mailing list >> unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe >> https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list >> > > > > -- > Fábio Augusto Miranda Martins > Fone: (11) 6202-3897 / (11) 6987-0590 > Cel: (11) 8564-0862 > E-mail: fabiomirmar@xxxxxxxxx > -- > redhat-list mailing list > unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list > -- Mike Burger http://www.bubbanfriends.org Visit the Dog Pound II BBS telnet://dogpound2.citadel.org or http://dogpound2.citadel.org:2000 To be notified of updates to the web site, visit http://www.bubbanfriends.org/mailman/listinfo/site-update, or send a message to: site-update-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx with a message of: subscribe -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
