Maintain your own little db using the info from wtmp and then you
are not relying upon wtmp but only to get the info and keep in your own db.

Wags ;)

Subject: Re: Calculating Last Login on Unix


That gives me the information I want, the problem is it 
relies on wtmp.  I believe wtmp gets nulled out on an 
ipl of the server and therefore nulls wtmp.  Therefore I 
lose my history.  What I am trying to do is identify 
user IDs that have not been used for say 60 days and get 
rid of them.

Thanks for your help
