Is there any way to know, what I have executed on UNIX Command prompt from last 2-3 days ?
One more point, some systems are interconnected, is there any way to know, who others have executed what command from last 2-3 days ?
I am in big trouble guys. Please help me out ASAP. I am working in service-based company. Something has happened in last two days and everybody is blaming me for the work that I am damn sure didn’t do it. My PM is not able to say anything… I have to prove myself.

hi,
there is a file called wtmp somewhere in /var or its subdirectories (depending on your Unix/Linux flavour). It's binary and contains the information who logged on when and from where. On Linux systems use "last" to decipher it. The tool "command history" might be another option. For Unix systems - it depends which Unix you use, check the man pages for wtmp, utmp, acct, accton etc.
