Hi Michael,

Yes, basically I'm trying to get a continuous log of who accesses which
files, and when.

Any and all suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Can I suggest that you explain the problem you are trying to solve 
rather than how you plan on solving it?

I suspect that the audit vfs module would be a far better option...but 
without knowing exactly what you want to do its a bit hard to say for sure.
