Hi mark, Great! I think those you mentioned is exactly what I want. Normally, I want to trace which guy got wrong things in server.
I tried the link that Harold provided find it's a good idea to protect log files, however, I want to know is which guy type which command. the /var/log/secure is what I want, thank you so much. I can not limit the sudo commands , like cp command. For instance, a small team 4 developers, we deploy some code file to this server, however, someone let say new guy overwrite wrong file. I need to trace on it and inform him carefully. thanks.
