    Hi,

    I am forwarding AIX server logs to my syslogserver. If i logged-in through ssh and exit, logoff logs are not getting forwarded. But i can get the other logs like login,access denied and etc. Please advice.

    The 'last' command gives you some info that you are looking for like how long a user was logged in and the logins and logouts. The file it reads is /var/adm/wtmp.

    But sending it via syslog to another syslog server....have not tried this one.

    Thanks for the Reply!!

    Are the 'logoff' events stored in some files?.. If it would be stored in some files, we can try to forward the same.

    Thanks in advance.

    /var/adm/wtmp stores the user name, login, logout, session duration and shutdown/reboots.
