Nagios Core Log file

Hello,

I was told the NAGIOS CORE  logfile  would log any changes made to host
command  execution ie:  External commands:who turned off what and  when.
Upon examination of my logfile it sems that this is not the case.
The log file indicates only that a particular service was enabled or disable
but it does not indiacte the user id that performed the change.

Can anyone point me in the right direction to make this happen?

Snippet of log file :

[root at its019-lap-v:var]# pwd
