Sorry if I haven't done my homework properly, but I was unable to find this information anywhere:

Is there an easy way to make fam write something like <date> <user> <file/directory> <action> to a log file in /var/log or to syslog? Preferably a solution not involving writing my own C program, but if that is what it takes...

It would be extremely usefull for many corporate users I imagine, who have to give several users RW access to the same files and want to know who changed what when. If there are other utilities that wold let me do this please let me know,, I have only found changedfiles so far and it doesn't log the user.

Thanks,
Arne
