Since most of the answers that have appeared so far
address Linux, I'll address Windows.
The easiest way to
On windows turn on the auditing for the file you want to watch. Or go
the whole hog and install Tripwire.
Tripwire runs on both Windows and Unix systems. Worth a look at because
they have some new stuff added which is quite nice.

People have mentioned tools to do this elsewhere. However, a small caveat,
make sure that the toll you are using does not reset the access time.
Somewhere way back in the my mind, there was a problem under some Unix's
systems with utilities that reset the access times when used.

In linux an ls -l should show you the last time a file was modified, in
windows modified and accessed it's a property of the file so just
right-click on it and choose properties I know it works on NTFS and
FAT32.
As far as I know you can't trust the dates though, there are "touch"
programs that a

I see it works on SGI Irix and also Linux Red Hat 6.2,
but on 7.3 it doesn't. But, I didn't look too hard
for the information on 7.3.

Hi.
Check its atime (access time): "ls -l --time=atime ".
Issuing "man ls" gives you more details.

Well, under Windows, you can right-click the file, go
down to "Properties" and look on the "General" tab
under the heading "Accessed:" and it will show you when
the file was last accessed (read or executed).

At least under W2K, you can do an advanced search by created, modified, and
accessed. It wont
tell you who was the last to access it, but it'll show you the timestamp of access.
Dunno about
under linux..

You can use stat command or the fstat() C function for this purpose.

"man ls" sez:

under linux you can use the stat command to get the last access time by
*ANY* user, however if the filesystem is mounted with the noatime flag
this time will not be updated.
