fwtmp & wtmpfix

[Victor_5]

I am using 11.00, I only have man pages for both of commands, where can I find them? Thanks.

Victor,

They're in
/usr/sbin/acct/

HTH,

Hi


/usr/sbin/acct has fwtmp also you amy like to look at this :

to read wtmp file, that now seems to be corrupted ,do like this:

the following will convert it to ASCII file
#/usr/sbin/acct/fwtmp < /var/adm/wtmp > /tmp/file
then you can either edit the file or read it.

Then you can convert it back to binary form:
##/usr/sbin/acct/fwtmp -ic < /tmp/file > /var/adm/wtmp
