        SYNTAX

        char *logname( )


        DESCRIPTION

        Logname returns a pointer to the null-terminated login name; it
        extracts the $LOGNAME variable from the user's environment.

        This routine is kept in /lib/libPW.a.


        FILES

        /etc/profile


        SEE ALSO

        profile(4), environ(5).
        env(1), login(1) in the User's Reference for the DG/UX System


        CAVEATS

        The return values point to static data whose content is
        overwritten by each call.

        This method of determining a login name is subject to forgery.
