6 of one, half dozen of another. It really depends on how you see things. For security reasons we've disabled logging. And users don't access servers at the shell anyway so no need for it there. We log app usage in app.

I find screen logging a bit more useful than shell logging. Shell only records the commands sent and not the result. Screen records everything including interactive like nano.

the most precious thing to a computer should be the human input, that's the thing that your brain worked on and that's what primarily should be recorded. (that's what source code is) Computers are deterministic, replaying your input should yield the same output again.

That is why it is soo important to save .bash_history (seriously, that's not a dot file you should be searching hard for)

saving other things are "nice to haves"
