-Better recording of shell commands
+-------------------------------------------------------
+Better Recording of Shell Commands
+ contributed by Scott, sharrison@users.sourceforge.net
+-------------------------------------------------------
GOAL: Keep track of the time of shell command execution
and do not lose command history.
+RATIONALE: Delivering educational resources to students via
+educational software is serious business.
+I recommend this technical tip as a practical way to
+improve your ability to capture most of the
+shell commands that would be typically executed on
+your LON-CAPA server system. Someday, you may need
+to reconstruct the events and happenings on your Linux
+operating system over a large historical period.
+
+THE SOLUTION:
The following solution works well for me
on many of my servers.
500 Internal Server Error
