Letter to Santa Claus

Good day!

Not so long ago noticed that some strange events are happening on the server. Before this FTP account was one, and two people used it. After the appearance of “weirdness”, they decided to make each separate account and write to tech support about the need to keep a log of who and when and what rules files for FTP.

Just want to say that the post is not about the problem on the server, but about what happens in tech support, too, live people with a sense of humor work.

So, we decided to write a letter to technical support. The mood is already pre-holiday. And that's what happened with us:

“Hello, dear Grandfather Frost!
My name is Victor.
Recently, I was faced with the need to know who and when edited these or those files on the server, this is mainly about php scripts, .htaccess files, etc., so this is probably image files (jpg, gif, png and etc.) we are not interested in this case. So, we need to keep a log file where information about changes (editing) of all files on the server will be recorded. Dear grandfather, please, just do not fuck me like last year's new year!
Thank you in advance!
Vitya. 5 years."

And sent. :-)
Today we receive the answer and we understand that in technical support not robots work, but real people. And they blow there no less than ours:

“Ho ho ho!

Hello, my young friend. As soon as you grasped the difficult art of writing in such an early period, I will add to the list (black?) Those who have earned my grace, having proved their obedience successfully. Well, let's start:

First, I’ll tell you about the most important thing: be careful about your desires and know for sure what you want - an inaccuracy that slips between words will wait an hour, leading to an error, an error will instantly nullify your efforts, and this is a collapse, the price of inaccurate desire.

Khm I apologize, carried away. Actually, I mean that there is / var / log / xferlog on the server, in which all the edits of all files via FTP are marked, indicating the IP, the user and the date, will this not be enough? Editing via SSH can be monitored by bash_history, referring to the authorization time in auth.log. "

On that actually stopped.
