Introduction

At the head of every log file, LibC/Inside displays the following information:

  1. Version and Copyright information for LibC/Inside
  2. The process
  3. The log file name
  4. The file descriptor associated with this log
  5. A list of other file descriptors open, if any
  6. The user and group ID and corresponding user and group names for this process
  7. The name of the program being executed



LibC/Inside reports are normally presented in the following format: 
calling address->function name(arguments ...)
return(return value)
        (Any modified arguments)



A simple example is shown on the following page which traces the execution of ftp in the scenario below: 
sunos% ftp ftp.unknown.com
ftp.unknown.com: unknown host
ftp> quit
sunos%
