Hi, In order to log the logintime for a person on a certain PC running FreeBSD 5.3, I want to call a "logout procedure" when the person logs out (either out of Gnome or with a shutdown) as follow:
last -y -t ttyv0 | awk '{print $1,$4,$5,$6,$9}' | loginperiod >> /home/user/<name>/Test.log where loginperiod is a tested Perl script which will give the required output. However, the total logintime is written in /var/log/wtmp during the logout process. Just after that moment, I want to call my script, using the command sequence above, and seperately log the time in /home of the user (or like: <user>_Timesheet.log instead of Test.log). I have tried to call this script in /etc/rc.shutdown, but it only creates Test.log as an empty file (the command above will give an output like: <name> <date> <time today> <time this month> <total logins>). Where, during the logout procedure, is /var/log/wtmp updated for the user time? Where and how should I call the above command sequence in order to seperately log the logintime for today using the last command?? Thank you in advance for any insights, Eugene Zegers -- ___________________________________________________________ Sign-up for Ads Free at Mail.com http://promo.mail.com/adsfreejump.htm _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
