 | View Full Version : Who was the last one to access the server ? oc3 11-03-2002, 05:00 PM Hi is there any way that i can find out which user was the last one to access the server ( upload / download ) or what ever. I just need to know who was the last registered user to have used the server ? Thanks/- Jedito 11-03-2002, 05:27 PM yes, use the comand last ;) MarkIL 11-03-2002, 06:40 PM If you want to see who was the last user to login (w/SSH, telnet, rsh, whatever) then yeah, last is what you need (as Jedito pointed out). Otherwise, if you're looking for FTP or other information, check the respective daemon's logfiles. oc3 11-04-2002, 04:43 AM Hi lewney, Could you elaborate more on Deamon files. How do i read, where is it located etc, etc. Thanks ! MarkIL 11-04-2002, 08:47 AM Originally posted by oc3 Hi lewney, Could you elaborate more on Deamon files.

Hrm, each daemon either a) keeps its own logfile (usually under /var/log, or /var/adm/log etc) b) logs to syslog (/var/log/messages, man syslog for more info) c) all of the above. If you could name a specific daemon (such as ProFTPd), I'd elaborate further. No point in listing hundreds of daemon, eh? ;) |
