A very simple script to notify me when users log on:

$ cat /etc/ssh/sshrc
#!/bin/bash

IFS="
"
nail -s "Login to <put Servername here> by $USER" root < .
$


where 'root' is the user this Mail is being mailed to. Nail is a mailer 
like mail and expects a dot to commit EOM.

This also works even when the user has another shell, e.g. scponly.
