Checking Admin Access Logs


I'm running Webhost Manager with cPanel on CentOS

I presume there are logs of who has done what to which on the server somewhere.

How would I find out who/when someone has accessed the WHM or cPanel control of one of my accounts, one of my mates thinks his account is being hacked.

You can check the domain logs of each account to see what all has been accessed on a particular account.

/usr/local/apache/domlogs/domainname

You can track the time as well as the ip address from which someone tried to access an account's whm or cpanel using the above log.
