Naushi,

I thing you can have some idea who had loged on to your system by typing last on unix prompt, or to view do as following. > last > save_last.log
and they view save_last.log and see what information you can extract from it.

Second. view the syslog file in /var/adm/syslog and I hope this will give you some idea who had been loging on and switching to different directories and get so information when some applications had been used.

Good Luck.
