Hi Jennifer,

There is a different way to find out who actualy logged into the system.

"last" displays this to you.
"last -R" Also shows you where they came from.
"lastb" shows you who tried, but where refused.

If you want this in a file just redirect the output :

"last -R 1>/tmp/lastlogin"

"man last" if you need more info on the command.
