NAME
utmpset - logout a line from utmp and wtmp file
SYNOPSIS
utmpset [ -w ] line
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
$
OPTIONS
-w wtmp. Additionally to the utmp file, write an empty record for
line to the wtmp file.
EXIT CODES
utmpset returns 111 on error, 1 on wrong usage, 0 in all other cases.
