Rüdiger,

you will need to setup this kind of logging first; it's actually called auditing.

The way to do this is to run the following commands:

Code: Select all

omconfaud rci 15
omoff -d 0 -w rci
omon -w rci


The rci is the "Remote Client Interface" service which must be restarted. Note that this will temporarily logout active users, though both Outlook and SWA should be able to reconnect automatically.

The 15 is the audit level and it determines which information is actually logged with each transaction. 15 is a pretty high level and logs all possible information. To see which fields are logged from which level upwards, check the /var/opt/scalix/sys/audit.cfg config file and see the Remote Client Interface/RCI section. Please do not modify the file though.

The logging information can be found in /var/opt/scalix/logs/audit. Please note that this is a text file which grows ad infinitum and needs to be manually rotated; also, there is a file size limit of 2 GB on the file, so it must be rotated before that limit is reached, otherwise services within Scalix might terminate because they cannot provide loggint the admin requires. For rotating the logs, you can use the Linux standard logrotate tool or our ommaint script in the admin_resource_kit directory of your download.

Hope this helps,
Florian.

Thanks a lot
