There is a command called "last" that will show you all the logins and 
their durations.  You can feed this into "less" or "grep" to search for 
specific users.

FTP also maintains a long in /var/log/xferlog of all the files transfered.

Please note, the support at netwinder.org list has been merged together 
with the other lists into a single netwinder at netwinder.org list.  You'll 
need to re-subscribe if you want to receive list traffic.
