I really need just to monitor the kill command. But I'm unsure about writing a wrapper/alias. If this is too off topic, don't worry about it. I'll eventually figure out something :-).
Thanks,

draper7,
What OS are you working in? If it is Linux, I would suggest that you follow
andreychek suggestion and
look into process accounting, as that would be a cleaner approach than
writing your own script.
Nevertheless, the way I see a script like this working would look like this in psuedocode
get args from command line
do some checking for validity of the arguments
(ie, is it a valid process number, does the user own the process, ar
+e the flags/signals valid)
open log file
write info about user, processid, process name, whatever
close log file
system("kill",$args,$processid)
More than that I can't do without spending a lot more time on it.

Of course, if your users are familiar with perl or C,
they can bypass the wrapper. Wrapping up libc's kill()
would be a little more complicated :)
