I just tried '$ xterm -l' on an 'ubuntu-9.04' box and it does seem to work. ('man' pages says the option may be disabled for security - I guess not in this distro.) Unfortunately the resulting log is completely accessible to the user.

Is there a good method for auditing command line operations, similar to bash_history that is not accessible to the user? bash_hisory is functional, but can be edited or deleted by the user.
Something that is included with a SLES distribution is highly desirable, but if there are some good options, one of them may already be there.
I've had one suggestion for snoopy, but I don't think it's included with SLES.
Thanks,
