|
|
.Op Fl f Ar file
|

|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm
|
|
will list the sessions of specified
|
|
.Ar users ,
|
|
.Ar ttys ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar hosts ,
|
|
in reverse time order.
|
|
Each line of output contains
|
|
the user name, the tty from which the session was conducted, any
|
|
hostname, the start and stop times for the session, and the duration
|
|
of the session.
|
|
If the session is still continuing or was cut short by
|
|
a crash or shutdown,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
will so indicate.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following options are available:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xHxhostsizexx
|
|
.It Fl Ar n
|
|
Limits the report to
|
|
.Ar n
|
|
lines.
|
|
.It Fl f Ar file
|
|
.Nm
|
|
reads the file
|
|
.Ar file
|
|
instead of the default,
|
|
.Pa /var/log/wtmpx
|
|
or
|
|
.Pa /var/log/wtmp .
|
|
If the file ends with
|
|
.Sq x ,
|
|
it is treated as a
|
|
.Xr utmpx 5
|
|
format file, else it is treated as a
|
|
.Xr utmp 5
|
|
format file.
|
|
If the file is ``-'', standard input is used.
|
|
.It Fl H Ar hostsize
|
|
Use the provided hostsize as the width to format the host name field.
|
|
.It Fl h Ar host
|
|
.Ar Host
|
|
names may be names or internet numbers.
|
|
.It Fl L Ar linesize
|
|
Use the provided linesize as the width to format the tty field.
|
|
.It Fl N Ar namesize
|
|
Use the provided namesize as the width to format the login name field.
|
|
.It Fl n
|
|
Print host addresses numerically.
|
|
This option works only on
|
|
.Xr wtmpx 5
|
|
entries,
|
|
and prints nothing on
|
|
.Xr wtmp 5
|
|
entries.
|
|
.It Fl T
|
|
Display better time information, including the year and seconds.
|
|
.It Fl t Ar tty
|
|
Specify the
|
|
.Ar tty .
|
|
Tty names may be given fully or abbreviated, for example,
|
|
.Dq Li "last -t 03"
|
|
is equivalent to
|
|
.Dq Li "last -t tty03" .
|
|
.It Fl x
|
|
Assume that the file given is in
|
|
.Xr wtmpx 5
|
|
format, even if the filename does not end with an
|
|
.Sq x .
|
|
Also useful when reading such format from standard input.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If multiple arguments are given, the information which applies to any of the
|
|
arguments is printed, e.g.,
|
|
.Dq Li "last root -t console"
|
|
would list all of
|
|
.Dq Li root Ns 's
|
|
sessions as well as all sessions on the console terminal.
|
|
If no users, hostnames, or terminals are specified,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
prints a record of all logins and logouts.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The pseudo-user
|
|
.Ar reboot
|
|
logs in at reboots of the system, thus
|
|
.Dq Li last reboot
|
|
will give an indication of mean time between reboot.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If
|
|
.Nm
|
|
is interrupted, it indicates to what date the search has progressed.
|
|
If interrupted with a quit signal
|
|
.Nm
|
|
indicates how far the search has progressed and then continues.
