Re: bash_logout and sftp

What about using ProFTPd with SSL support instead? You can generate a xferlog 
or a "ftp commands logfile". Then there are some things you can do with this 
file.

First could be to write a little script which would "tail -f", and execute the 
appropiate rsync commands.

Another option could be to create a named pipe as a source for Syslog-NG, and 
use it as the xferlog or extendedlog of ProFTPd. And then, in Syslog-NG 
define an "exec" destination.

Problem : if they write a lot of small files, you could end launching hundreds 
of simultaneous rsyncs.
