Alexander~
Thank you for the reply. There's a wealth of information in those two files!
I'll definitely make it a point to track them often.
btw - I hope I separated this correctly. I didn't want this to confuse the
main topic.

As a newbie to this myself, I'm curious to know where you found
that
information (what logs).

/var/log/messages
/var/log/secure
Both logfiles are inspected by the daily logwatch run, so at least you
will be alarmed by the daily logwatch mail, if not constantly running a
"tail -f /var/log/messages" in a terminal window to see what's going on.
