I have a simple question about user monitoring.

Is there a program that allows for the live monitoring of all users?

Thanks,
Igor

Please define what you mean by "live monitoring" of an user.

You know how you use top to diplay all running tasks?
Is there a program to display all commands currently being executed on the system along with the user who is executing it?
It's live monitoring.

Yes.

top is one, for example. Or ps auxw. Or whowatch from app-admin/whowatch.

"Live monitoring" could have meant pretty much anything - monitoring network connections, X Windows screens, physical surveillance via webcam... There's no need to get testy - your question was unclear to me and I asked for clarification.
