Some folks seem to claim you can just add something to /etc/profile to
have it log to syslog... Personally, I'm not really a bash shell fan,
so...  YMMV.

    function history_to_syslog
    {
    declare cmd
    cmd=$(fc -ln -0)
    logger -p local7.notice . SESSION = $$, CMD =$cmd
    }
    trap history_to_syslog DEBUG
