when i logged into my box via ssh.. it does not display the last login record.. how to solve it?? thanks

What operating system are you using?

If you use Redhat 9, typing last will give you a list of all the last logged in users

someone posted this code wich wil mail you whenever someone has loged in as root with SSH


since a intruder could easely cover his/her tracks this wil be a good code to add since you wil be notified by mail

yes, i have already add this code in .bash_profile , thanks



thanks.. i will try..



Redhat 9

Try in ssh:

chmod go+r /var/log/lastlog

This solved the same problem here

Excellent code snippet

Hum...gives me a: -bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'

As an error no matter what I try (except the right thing I supose)

thanks problem solved
