SLogNote 1.01 - Documentation
(c) Copyright 1995, Paradigm Software, All Rights Reserved
Introduction
SLogNote is a utility that will log notes to a file. SLogNote
writes the date, time, node address, user name and a message that
you specify to this file. This utility works with Novell Netware
3.x networks.
SLogNote was designed as a complimentary utility for our LogNote
product. The "S" stands for Secure. SLogNote's log files are not
ASCII viewable. The information written is by SLogNote is scrambled
so that a casual user may not review the log file. In some cases,
the network administrator may not wish users to see the contents.
Since read/write rights are required in order for the utility to
work, LogNote would allow the end-user to review the logfile.
SLogNote will not.
Usage
SLOGNOTE <File> <Message>
<File> is the log file name, with or without a DOS path
<Message> is the message you wish to log
SLogNote will add the following information to the log file
with the message: Date, Time, Node Address, Novell User Name
Examples
SLOGNOTE f:\login\in.txt "User logged into network"
The above example might be called from the system login script to
record when users actually login to the network.
Translation of Logfiles
Two utilties are provided to help the administrator translate
the log files.
SXLATE translate the log file into ASCII text. For example,
SXLATE logfile.log ascii.log will create ascii.log which is
human readable.
SXLATECD translate the log file into an ASCII comma delimited
file. For example, SXLATECD logfile.log ascii.cd will create
ascii.cd which can be imported into any program supporting
comma delimited files.
In the future, special reporting programs will be available
for SLogNote and LogNote. These files will be posted on our
BBS.
Return Codes
0 - All OK
1 - Incorrect number of parameters
