LASTLOG(8)

Contents


NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

       lastlog - examine lastlog file

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

       lastlog [-u login-name] [-t days]

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       lastlog	formats  and  prints  the  contents  of  the  last  login log,
       /var/log/lastlog.  The login-name, port, and last login	time  will  be
       printed.   The default (no flags) causes lastlog entries to be printed,
       sorted by the numerical UID.  Entering -u login-name  flag  will  cause
       the lastlog record for login-name only to be printed.  Entering -t days
       will cause only the lastlogins more recent than	days  to  be  printed.
       The -t flag overrides the use of -u.

       If  the user has never logged in the message "**Never logged in**" will
       be displayed instead of the port and time.

FILES    [Toc]    [Back]

       /var/log/lastlog - lastlog logging file

CAVEATS    [Toc]    [Back]

       Large gaps in uid numbers will cause the lastlog program to run	longer
       with  no  output to the screen (i.e. if mmdf=800 and last uid=170, program
 will appear to hang as it processes uid 171-799).
