Abstract :
This paper describes the implementation of C2 auditing in the MIT X Consortium X Display Manager (XDM) on a Sun Workstation. This custom implementation of XDM audits user logins, attempted logins and logouts by creating a C2 audit trail in the workstation´s audit file. Additionally, when a user has exceeded a specified number of failed login attempts, the user´s account and/or workstation may be disabled
