AULASTLOG(8)
β¨ AULASTLOG β¨
okay so bestie, welcome to aulastlog β it's a little sysadmin tool from the System Administration Utilities fam, and honestly? it's giving detective energy. it's a program similar to lastlog. that's the whole vibe. π΅οΈβοΈ
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
aulastlog [ options ]
literally just the command and whatever options you wanna throw at it. no drama.
π DESCRIPTION π
so here's the tea: aulastlog prints out the last login for all users of the local machine, kinda the same way lastlog does it. same energy, different program, iykyk. π«Ά
what actually gets printed? three things, no cap:
- the login-name
- the port
- the last login time
and if a user has never logged in?? π then instead of the port and time, you get the message:
** Never logged in**
not a single login to their name. we've all been there tbh. ghost user behavior. π
β¨ OPTIONS β¨
-u,--userβ only print the lastlog record for the user with the specified LOGIN. one user, one record, no scrolling through everybody. targeted. π--stdinβ use stdin as the source of the audit records instead of, like, wherever it normally gets them. heads up though: the audit events must be in the raw format. raw only, bestie, don't try to be cute with it. π
