When I type last oracle I get dates from Nov 28, 2000 all the way back to the beginning of time it seems. The 11-28-2000 entry states that Oracle is still logged in, but if you type a who, it shows only 1 entry - the currently logged in user (Me as oracle), but I logged in only minutes ago - and the system date shows correct. Why does it not log current users any more? Please advise as soon as possible.

rwho
rwho(1) User Commands rwho(1)
NAME
rwho - who is logged in on local machines
SYNOPSIS
rwho [-a]
DESCRIPTION
The rwho command produces output similar to who(1), but for all machines on your network. If no report has been received from a machine
for 5 minutes, rwho assumes the machine is down, and does not report users last known to be logged into that machine.
If a user has not typed to the system for a minute or more, rwho reports this idle time. If a user has not typed to the system for an hour
or more, the user is omitted from the output of rwho unless the -a flag is given.
OPTIONS
-a Report all users whether or not they have typed to the system in the past hour.
FILES
/var/spool/rwho/whod.* information about other machines
ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:
+-----------------------------------------------------------+
|ATTRIBUTE TYPE ATTRIBUTE VALUE |
|Availability SUNWrcmds |
+-----------------------------------------------------------+
SEE ALSO
finger(1), ruptime(1), who(1), in.rwhod(1M), attributes(5)
NOTES
rwho does not work through gateways.
The directory /var/spool/rwho must exist on the host from which rwho is run.
This service takes up progressively more network bandwith as the number of hosts on the local net increases. For large networks, the cost
becomes prohibitive.
The rwho service daemon, in.rwhod(1M), must be enabled for this command to return useful results.
