HOW CAN I TURN ON DETAILED CRON LOGGING?

ITEM: RTA000028871

Under AIX 3.2 (RS6000), I only get one line of info (cron started)              
in my cron log when cron is started.  Under AIX (PS/2), and SCO, I              
have DETAILED logging (a line when each job is started, etc).  I've             
been unable to find how to turn this feature on for the RS6000.

A: More detailed logging of 'cron' executions can be accessed through the       
   RISC System's Auditing Subsystem.  Once properly configured, the             
   following two audit events are generated:                                    
                                                                                
      cron_start - Lists the name of each job, whether the job was              
      initiated by an at or cron command, and the time the job                  
      started.                                                                  
                                                                                
      cron_finish - Lists the user's name, process ID of the job, and          
      the time the processing was completed.                                    
                                                                                
   Details on configuring the Audit Subsystem can be found by reading the       
   "How to Set Up an Auditing System" in InfoExplorer.  This information        
   itself can be found in the InfoExplorer article for 'cron'.
