  • in short: you want to know who's access a file ? -- try process accounting, command logging, version control, lsof, or similar. Amongst that lot there's prolly something that'll help you. It sounds like you want revision control though - see "svn". If you just want to know when the file is changed, use iwatch or similar. – Sirex Feb 16 '12 at 12:13

You can try audit. This link provide information related to Centos/redhat, but it should be similar for other distributions also.
