SYNOPSIS

       lastcomm [Command] [Name] [Tty]

DESCRIPTION

       The  lastcomm  command  outputs	information about all previously executed commands that are recorded in the /var/adm/pacct file in reverse
       chronological order.

       You may specify a particular command with the Command parameter, a particular user with the Name parameter, and a  particular  terminal	as
       the  command  source  with the Tty parameter. Output is then restricted to the specified parameters. A Tty terminal may be named fully (for
       example, tty0) or abbreviated (for example, 0).

       The following information is displayed for each process: Name of the command under which the process was called.  Any flags collected  when
       the  command  was  executed.  The following flags are valid: Command was run with an effective user-id of 0.  Command ran after a fork, but
       without an exec system call following it.  Name of the user who issued the command.  The terminal the command was started from.	Seconds of
       CPU time used.  Time the process started.
