 Unix Tip #4229- September  9, 2012
 
TRACKING OF LOGINS AND LOGOUTS  
  
  
In the .login file add the commands:  
------------------------------------  
  
echo login time `date` >> .daylogs/masterlog  
  
grep -i "sun" .daylogs/masterlog > .daylogs/sunday.log  
grep -i "mon" .daylogs/masterlog > .daylogs/monday.log  
grep -i "tue" .daylogs/masterlog > .daylogs/tuesday.log  
grep -i "wen" .daylogs/masterlog > .daylogs/wensday.log  
grep -i "thu" .daylogs/masterlog > .daylogs/thursday.log  
grep -i "fri" .daylogs/masterlog > .daylogs/friday.log  
grep -i "sat" .daylogs/masterlog > .daylogs/saturday.log  
  
  
In the .logout file add this line  
-----------------------------------  
  
echo logout time `date`>> .daylogs/masterlog  
  
This script assumes you have a hidden  
directory called .daylogs this helps keep it  
out of sight and away from prying eyes and  
if you keep root ownership of the directory  
change the mode to:  
  
chmod 744 .daylogs  
  
This will not allow anyone to get in to the  
directory to look around.

test each tip in a non-volitile environment before placing into
production.
