Question please clarify

Looking at the last command, and it output, what do you mean by user's last command? It shows user, connection, day, date, time, and possibly if still connected.

A script could be written to extract from this file, but do not understand what you are trying to find. Can you supply more info and perhaps a sample of what you are trying to create?

A command like:
Code:
last | tr -s " " | cut -d" " -f1,5 | sort -u

would show users and months they had access/activity in.
