AULASTLOG(8)

✨ AULASTLOG ✨

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. πŸ•΅οΈβ™€οΈ


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

aulastlog [ options ]

literally just the command and whatever options you wanna throw at it. no drama.


πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

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. 🫢

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?? 😭 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. πŸ’€


✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • -u, --user β€” only print the lastlog record for the user with the specified LOGIN. one user, one record, no scrolling through everybody. targeted. πŸ’…
  • --stdin β€” 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. πŸ™ˆ
