how to know which ip the user logins from?

Hi,

I would like to know from which ip the user comes from. The output from w, who, or finger cannot give me the answer.

U no this?

You can use:

who -R

Or to find out past logons, use:

last -R

Hi Crystal:

You can do:

# last -r username

This assumes that you have touched 'var/adm/wtmp' to first create it.

# who -R

...will also yield the hostname or IPaddress of the user(s).

In either case, if a hostname (or FQDN) is returned, and you want its corresponding IPAddress, do:

# getip hostname

Regards!

Hi Crystal,

Start inetd in logging mode. It will report all the IP address in your syslog.log file.
#inetd -l

You can start it any time. But be aware that the size of syslog file can grow faster than earlier.

You can also try
#who -T
