Subject: Starting "Script" when user logs on.
Date: Wed, 3 Aug 2005 16:38:10 +0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <b30595cd050803033826add037@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi all,

I am trying to force "script" for logging all text I/O activities at
the moment user logs in. Most of the users are running bash at this
moment.

Initially I tired with "ttyrec" a tty recorder and failed, as it says
"Out of pty's - Terminated". Now, I tried something like below:

------------------
#!/bin/bash -l
USER=`whoami`
LOGTIME=`date +%Y-%m-%d-%H:%M:%S`
/usr/bin/script -q /var/log/commlog/$USER-$LOGTIME
------------------

and assigning this script in /etc/passws. This script will log scripts
with time stamp in /var/log/commlog/.

what happen is: when user logs in the process becomes a loop and I see
lot of script instances are running.

Any idea.
