Hi,
Via google I came across the define named
config-top.h:/* #define SYSLOG_HISTORY */
Changing it (manually) to
config-top.h:#define SYSLOG_HISTORY
Adds syslog statements such as:
Aug 9 16:52:55 x064 user:info syslog: HISTORY: PID=262242 UID=0 ls -ltr
Request #1
Add a ./configure variable, e.g., --with-syslog_history
I will think about this, but I am inclined not to do it. It's easy enough
to enable for those few user who want to do so.
Request #2
At the request of a bash user on AIX I made the following change to make
the syslog output "standardized" to AIX format for many applications so
that the output looks like this:
Aug 9 17:30:12 x064 user:info syslog: bash[454682]: UID=0: ls -ltr
The better way to do this is to use openlog(). I will add the necessary
pieces to call openlog with the shell name as the identifier and LOG_PID
as the default value for the log options.
