1/31 I have a HUGE utmpx log. What kind of data is in there?
would someone post an example getutxent statement that pulls some
historical data? are sepecific commands issued by users in there?
\_ utmpx is only current logins. wtmpx is historical data (login/out
time & hostname, not commands). Use 'who' & 'last' to view the
contents of each. -alan-
\_ Most folks set up utmp and wtmp to get rotated and purged over
time. If you have some security or user tracking concerns, you
might rotate them to another box and eventually dump them to tape
or something. Most don't save em. |
