Hi everyone, I've been wrestling these past few days with Derek Dresser's solution on utmp/wtmp logging. It's a great way in recording historical access to the LTSP server (Thanks Jim for putting it on the LTSP site). However, i can't seem to let 'who' to work properly so as the number of users currently logged-in is determined and displayed.
I noticed too that only the last user who has logged in is recognized as current (displayed by 'who'). The rest who haven't logged-out yet seem to disappear from the currently logged-in users. It seems that 'sessreg' uses {line-name} (-l option) as the basis for indexing the utmp database. Whenever another user logs-in, the previous record gets 'stepped-on' since 'sessreg' apparently normalizes the $DISPLAY argument to only ':0' instead of '{hostname}:0', thus overwriting the previous utmp record (having the same line-name). Is there a way in making all those who access the server have a unique {line-name}? I tried using `tty` instead of $DISPLAY but had problems with the 'XServers' file. I'm stumped (sorry for the term). Any suggestions / help highly appreciated. regards to all, Phil _____________________________________________________________________ Ltsp-discuss mailing list.
