Yeah I get that I think.

Code:
bubble151:~$ last -n 3 agreen1
agreen1  pts/0        hottub.private.u Mon May  7 07:51   still logged in   
agreen1  pts/0        hottub.private.u Mon May  7 05:04 - 05:14  (00:09)    
agreen1  pts/0        hottub.private.u Sun May  6 21:22 - 22:12  (00:49)    

or
bubble151:~$ last -n 3 -R agreen1
agreen1  pts/0        Mon May  7 07:51   still logged in   
agreen1  pts/0        Mon May  7 05:04 - 05:14  (00:09)    
agreen1  pts/0        Sun May  6 21:22 - 22:12  (00:49)

The problem Im having is that Im being told basically that I need to logged in to the hottub server and run whatever command and see my logins from there.

The above code is from when I logged in on my bubble and shows my activity on the hottub. The info in the above code should be what i need (informationally). Im going to email her in a bit.

Well I did learn that I don't have to pipe last like i did in my first post.Smilie

I still feel like this.Smilie At least now I have a few questions I can ask my instructor.

Thank you. I appreciate the help from both of you.

PTS_QUIT(1)						       AFS Command Reference						       PTS_QUIT(1)

NAME
pts_quit - Exit from pts interactive mode SYNOPSIS
pts quit [-cell] <cell name> [-noauth] [-localauth] [-force] pts q [-c] <cell name> [-n] [-l] [-f] DESCRIPTION
The pts quit command exits from pts interactive mode. The command can be run from the command line or interactively, but on the command line it does nothing and is therefore of questionable utility. CAUTIONS
Prior to OpenAFS 1.4.5 and OpenAFS 1.5.23, the pts quit command was only available on Unix or Linux and when OpenAFS was compiled with the supergroups option (disabled by default). As of OpenAFS 1.4.5 and 1.5.23, it is always available. OPTIONS
Although they have no effect, pts quit takes the following standard pts options: -cell <cell name> Names the cell in which to run the command. For more details, see pts(1). -force Enables the command to continue executing as far as possible when errors or other problems occur, rather than halting execution at the first error. -help Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored. -localauth Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local /etc/openafs/server/KeyFile file. Do not combine this flag with the -cell or -noauth options. For more details, see pts(1). -noauth Assigns the unprivileged identity anonymous to the issuer. For more details, see pts(1). OUTPUT
This command produces no output. EXAMPLES
Here is an example of a pts interactive session: % pts interactive pts> quit % SEE ALSO
