A cheesy way to do that is to use a popen ("tail -f /var/log/auth.log", "r") and then read that. It will give you every login regardless of ssh, telnet etc. You could then generate the emails from that. I have no idea just how resource intensive this might be. You would also have to ensure it got started by rc during boot._______________________________________________
In order to find out if someone logged in, I should then first copy auth.log to auth2.log, and do a compare and then do the tail trick. Have to cron that every half a minute. I would like to know if there is something that is alterted on the moment that someone logs on thus forcing evt. your tail suggestion
