[QUOTE="Kokopelli, post: 181723"] Well if it is remote, a keystroke logger will do no good. If you want to ensure no remote exploits there is a very simple solution. Turn it off when you are not around. If you are afraid of a local attacker (i.e. someone at the keyboard) then lock all accounts with a strong password. Please be more specific, what do you suspect the miscreant is doing and how do you suspect he is accomplishing the deed. If a user can bypass a secure password in a short period of time he can also cover his tracks against a keystroke logger. If he is doing it remotely, again a logger won't do any good. While it may sound like an attractive idea it is not a practical solution to your problem, legal and ethical considerations aside. Heck go low tech. Set a script to send a note to the system log on login. [/QUOTE]
