Имя (Name)

lastlog - reports the most recent login of all users or of a
       given user

Синопсис (Synopsis)

lastlog [options]

Описание (Description)

lastlog formats and prints the contents of the last login log
       /var/log/lastlog file. The login-name, port, and last login time
       will be printed. The default (no flags) causes lastlog entries to
       be printed, sorted by their order in /etc/passwd.

Параметры (Options)

The options which apply to the lastlog command are:

-b, --before DAYS Print only lastlog records older than DAYS.

-C, --clear Clear lastlog record of a user. This option can be used only together with -u (--user)).

-h, --help Display help message and exit.

-R, --root CHROOT_DIR Apply changes in the CHROOT_DIR directory and use the configuration files from the CHROOT_DIR directory.

-S, --set Set lastlog record of a user to the current time. This option can be used only together with -u (--user)).

-t, --time DAYS Print the lastlog records more recent than DAYS.

-u, --user LOGIN|RANGE Print the lastlog record of the specified user(s).

The users can be specified by a login name, a numerical user ID, or a RANGE of users. This RANGE of users can be specified with a min and max values (UID_MIN-UID_MAX), a max value (-UID_MAX), or a min value (UID_MIN-).

If the user has never logged in the message ** Never logged in** will be displayed instead of the port and time.

Only the entries for the current users of the system will be displayed. Other entries may exist for users that were deleted previously.


Примечание (Note)

The lastlog file is a database which contains info on the last
       login of each user. You should not rotate it. It is a sparse
       file, so its size on the disk is usually much smaller than the
       one shown by "ls -l" (which can indicate a really big file if you
       have in passwd users with a high UID). You can display its real
       size with "ls -s".

Конфигурация (Configuration)

The following configuration variables in /etc/login.defs change
       the behavior of this tool:

LASTLOG_UID_MAX (number) Highest user ID number for which the lastlog entries should be updated. As higher user IDs are usually tracked by remote user identity and authentication services there is no need to create a huge sparse lastlog file for them.

No LASTLOG_UID_MAX option present in the configuration means that there is no user ID limit for writing lastlog entries.


Файлы (Files)

/var/log/lastlog
           Database times of previous user logins.

Предостережение (Caveat)

Large gaps in UID numbers will cause the lastlog program to run
       longer with no output to the screen (i.e. if in lastlog database
       there is no entries for users with UID between 170 and 800
       lastlog will appear to hang as it processes entries with UIDs
       171-799).

Having high UIDs can create problems when handling the <term> /var/log/lastlog</term> with external tools. Although the actual file is sparse and does not use too much space, certain applications are not designed to identify sparse files by default and may require a specific option to handle them.
