NAME
lastlogin —
indicate last login time of
users
SYNOPSIS
lastlogin |
[--libxo] [-f
file] [-rt]
[user ...] |
DESCRIPTION
Thelastlogin utility will list the last login session
of each specified user, or for all users by default.
Each line of output contains the user name, the tty from which the session was
conducted, any hostname, and the start time for the session.
If more than one user is given, the session information for each user is printed in the order given on the command line. Otherwise, information for all users is printed. By default, the entries are sorted by user name.
The lastlogin utility differs from
last(1) in that it only prints information regarding the very last
login session. The last login database is never turned over or deleted in
standard usage.
The following options are available:
--libxo- Generate output via libxo(3) in a selection of different human and machine readable formats. See xo_parse_args(3) for details on command line arguments.
-ffile- Open last login database file instead of the system-wide database.
-r- Print the entries in reverse sorted order.
-t- Sort the elements by last login time, instead of user name.
FILES
- /var/log/utx.lastlogin
- last login database
