.bash_history files

New Pleskian
I was wondering how to turn on the .bash_history files for plesk users who have been given /bin/bash access.
thanks
 
Hello,

Bash history is already enable and you will get the .bash_history file in every user home directory when user access server using SSH. Login your server and check user home directory using ls -la command.
 
Thanks for the reply. for some reason it was not enabled, a user with bash ssh access attatched to his plesk hosting account did not have a history file. After I created a .bash_history file in the users home directory and the other files (.profile,.bashrc,.bash_logout) however the history file started to populate with commands as it should.
