that it must have been root or a member of sys that changed the file?

Thanks Mark / Bill.
However, this gets curiouser and curiouser.
The last root command shows that the last time root logged into the
system
was back on sep 09.
However, we are sure that this file was modified yesterday.
Is there a way to determine who modified this file?

---- ----------------------------------------------------| | | | To: aix-l@Princeton.EDU | | cc: | | Subject: determining when root was logged in | >----------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- ----------------------------------------------------| I need to pinpoint who was logged in as root yesterday when this file was modified. So I would like to know what time the person / process got logged in as root and from what terminal / IP address. Also does anyone know where the list of users that are set up on the system are stored? I need to show the users that are set up as part of the system group. -rw-rw-rw- 1 root sys 26624 Oct 23 13:46 -dayend.cdx -rw-rw-rw- 1 root sys 42844 Oct 23 13:46 -dayend.dbf -rw-rw-rw- 1 root sys 10 Aug 02 10:03 -dayend.key TIA Vipin Khushu
