DESCRIPTION

       The logname command writes to standard output the name you used to log into the system.

NOTES

       The logname command explicitly ignores the LOGNAME environment variable to avoid erroneous results from environment changes.

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned: Successful completion.  The getlogin() utility would fail.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       The following environment variables affect the execution of *cmd*: Provides a default value for the internationalization variables that are
       unset or null. If LANG is unset or null, the corresponding value from the default locale is used.  If any of the internationalization vari-
       ables  contain  an  invalid setting, the utility behaves as if none of the variables had been defined.  If set to a non-empty string value,
       overrides the values of all the other internationalization variables.  Determines the locale for the interpretation of sequences  of  bytes
       of  text data as characters (for example, single-byte as opposed to multibyte characters in arguments).	Determines the locale for the for-
       mat and contents of diagnostic messages written to standard error.  Determines the location of message catalogues  for  the  processing	of
       LC_MESSAGES.
