If your site is licensed to use the Input-Only feature then input-only watching/logging can be authorized for specific users by granting them the proper rights-ids. For being watched by SPY with /INPUT_ONLY the ID is SPY$INPUT_WATCHEE. For watching with SPY using /INPUT_ONLY the ID is SPY$INPUT_WATCHER. To add these identifiers to the system rights database use the AUTHORIZE commands ADD/IDENTIFIER SPY$INPUT_WATCHER, and ADD/IDENTIFIER SPY$INPUT_WATCHEE. To then grant these identifiers to specific users, use an AUTHORIZE command in the form of GRANT /IDENTIFIER PEEK$INPUT_WATCHER J_JONES GREAT CARE SHOULD BE USED WHEN GRANTING THESE IDENTIFIERS SINCE THEY ALLOW THE WATCHING OF PASSWORDS AND OTHER NON-ECHOED INPUT.
