Re: Log Files

Around 10:43am on Friday, January 09, 2009 (UK time), Leon Vergottini scrawled:

 I do need help again.   I would like to know if Fedora has a log file which
 log all events by all users and where can I found it?  Also if possible, can
 such a log file be created if there is not such a log file.

Yes it does - although it may not include all the events you expect.
There is more than one file - they are foundin /var/log.  Look in
messages in particular, although you will also find other logs as well,
e.g. secure (for security) and maillog (obvious).

Look also at auditd daemon, it's very flexible.  It can log almost
every event you want because of a direct interface with the kernel.

 Did you by chance happen to install vmware? Installing vmware seems to
 change the SEli9nux context of /etc/services, which prevents syslog
 from working. To fix:
 
 1) run /sbin/restorecon -v /etc/services
 2) /sbin/service syslog restart

yes I had installed vmware! what a mess up by them...
