SYNTAX
/usr/lib/acct/fwtmp [-ic]
/usr/lib/acct/wtmpfix [files]
DESCRIPTION
Fwtmp
Fwtmp reads from the standard input and writes to the standard
output, converting binary records of the type found in wtmp to
formatted ASCII records. The ASCII version is useful to enable
editing, via ed(1), bad records or general purpose maintenance of
the file.
The argument -ic is used to denote that input is in ASCII form,
and output is to be written in binary form.
Wtmpfix
Wtmpfix examines the standard input or named files in wtmp
format, corrects the time/date stamps to make the entries
consistent, and writes to the standard output. A - can be used
in place of files to indicate the standard input. If time/date
corrections are not performed, acctcon1 will fault when it
encounters certain date-change records.
Each time the date is set, a pair of date change records are
written to /etc/wtmp. The first record is the old date denoted
by the string old time placed in the line field and the flag
OLDTIME placed in the type field of the <utmp.h> structure. The
second record specifies the new date and is denoted by the string
new time placed in the line field and the flag NEWTIME placed in
the type field. Wtmpfix uses these records to synchronize all
time stamps in the file.
In addition to correcting time/date stamps, wtmpfix will check
the validity of the name field to ensure that it consists solely
of alphanumeric characters or spaces. If it encounters a name
that is considered invalid, it will change the login name to
INVALID and write a diagnostic to the standard error. In this
way, wtmpfix reduces the chance that acctcon1 will fail when
processing connect accounting records.
