utmpset - logout a line from utmp and wtmp file
Contents
Description
The utmpset program modifies the user accounting database utmp(5) and optionally wtmp(5) to indicate that
the user on the terminal line has logged out.
Ordinary init(8) processes handle utmp file records for local login accounting. The runit(8) program
doesn't include code to update the utmp file, the getty(8) processes are handled the same as all other
services.
To enable local login accounting, add utmpset to the getty(8) finish scripts, e.g.:
$ cat /service/getty-5/finish
#!/bin/sh
exec utmpset -w tty5
$
Exit Codes
utmpset returns 111 on error, 1 on wrong usage, 0 in all other cases.
Name
