problem with who

[Johan den Boer]

Hi,

command who display not the right information. When we remote login on
a HP the last tty entry is overwritten
in the /etc/utmp file. So, if 2 or more
people remote login only 1 entry will be
seen with the who command.
Does anyone has encounterd the same problem

regards

Johan den Boer

Hi,

i've never seen this but seen more users from who but aren't logged in.
However i would try resetting the /etc/utmp with:
>/etc/utmp

To reset /etc/utmp type

cat /dev/null > /etc/utmp
federico
