Hello friends, My friend wants the user commands history file ~/.bash_history to be non writeable by user. He feels that the user should not able to erase the commands entered by him.
A reasonable requirement. In case the ~/.bash_history file can also be written to another location that the root alone can access then perhaps we can solve this problem. But AFAIK bash runs as the user process. How can you make the file readable and writeable by root alone? In that case how can the history mechanism function? Do you guys know a way to get around this problem? Thanks. -Girish -- "unix soi qui mal y pense" UNIX to him who evil thinks _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
