Short: Log user activities with MultiUser
Author: Chris Mc Carthy (cmccarth@icl.rtc-cork.ie)
Uploader: Chris Mc Carthy (cmccarth@icl.rtc-cork.ie)
Type: util/cli
This is a utility for MultiUser which allows you to log a user's activities
(in a limited sort of way). It consists of two parts, i.e. a daemon process,
and a client process. You use the client process to log a message (append it
to the multiuser.log file, you pass it a string, and it then finds the UserID
and current system time. It passes this information onto the daemon process,
which is a root suid program and so has write access to the MultiUser.log file.
It is only useful in things like startup scripts (e.g. something like
"c:log Shell startup" in the s:shell-startup script to see when the users
start a new shell, or even better, put it in something like ToolsDaemon, so
when the users use the menus to launch applications, you can log it.
