This reminded me of something else. I used to have a basic program in =
dos that would log the time and date that someone started the computer. =
Is there such a thing in Linux and could it show who as well as when?

  Try a cron job, every 5 min, that runs a script that runs the who =
command an grep for the user if the value is returned then log it to a =
