Ok, if you *know* you have a disgruntled employee. However, I worked at a
place about 4 years ago that implemented command logging of *every*
command of *every* user. Slowed the system down, visibly... and IMO,
created a hostile work environment, telling the employees that no,
management *did not* trust them, an attitude guaranteed to turn gruntled
employees into disgruntled ones. <g>
You'll note I don't work there anymore (though that was for more reasons
than just this).
