im on a solaris box and i want to see access log?

ForumKid · 11-05-2002, 11:30 AM

Hi,
Im looking for a log that shows a report of all users accessing the box via telnet or ssh or whatever. Redhat has a log, but I cant find the log on solaris.

Thanks

Here's a good link to a page that describes all the main log files under Solaris: http://www.cert.org/security-improve...s/i041.12.html

Indeed, it is there just like TrickyKid said. And it is accessible via the 'last' command just like it is under Linux.

When did this become a Solaris forum?

adm/lastlog

This binary log file stores information about a user who has logged into the system. It is kept up to date by utilities such as login(1) and in.uucpd(1M). The data are viewable with tools such as last(1), who(1), and finger(1). Refer to the system man pages for more information.

Thanks guys. I got it now.

I know this isnt a solaris forum. This is a linux forum. It pertains enough about linux since a lot of people here deal with solaris. I use this place as my one stop UNIX forum whether it be linux, unix, etc.

Anyhow Im a contributing member so i get that priveledge
