utempter_add_record, utempter_remove_added_record, utempter_remove_record, utempter_set_helper — utempter

utempter_add_record()  function  adds a login record to the database for the TTY belonging to the pseudo-
       terminal master file descriptor fd, using the username corresponding with the real user ID of the calling
       process and the optional hostname host.  This function spawns a privileged process to perform the  actual
       logging.

       utempter_remove_record()  function  marks  the login session as being closed for the TTY belonging to the
       pseudo-terminal master file descriptor fd.  This function spawns a  privileged  process  to  perform  the
       actual logging.

       utempter_remove_added_record()  function  has  the  same properties as the previously mentioned function,
       except that it uses an internally cached value of the file descriptor passed to the login functions.

       utempter_set_helper() function changes default helper path to the specified value.  The pointer passed to
       this function must remain valid all the time while utempter interface is in use.

       These functions appeared in ALT Linux Sisyphus in October 2001.
