HP-UX

Dear All,

how to check the unix log file which mean how many(who) user has been log in the server for the day, when they log in & when they log out?

Hello,

The last command in HP-UX shows the successful log details of the users
and lastb command is used to bad login details.

Regards,
Santhi.

use man last

you can use last | grep "May 10" for 10th may for successfull logins
and lastb | | grep "May 10" for unsuccessfull logins.

Cheers,

Dear All,

Thks for your information!

Anyhow, how can i use this log file and send to my email everyday ontime.
for example every 6:00pm, i will receive this log file and write a report.

do yours have any idea?

# Script Name: /dir/scr.sh
#! /usr/bin/ksh
DATE=`date "+DATE:%m.%d.%y"`
> /tmp/$DATE
echo "Details of Last Succesfull Logins are Below:" >>/tmp/$DATE
aw=`date | awk '{print $1,$2,$3}'`
last | grep "$aw" >> /tmp/$DATE
echo "Details of Last Failed Logins are Below:" >>/tmp/$DATE
lastb | grep "$aw" >> /tmp/$DATE
cat /tmp/$DATE | mailx -s "Todays Details" abc@def.gh
#Script End

Set this script to crontab
#crontab -e
0 18 * * * /dir/scr.sh

Cheers,

Thks Awa.

Anyway, how to capture the IP address instead of username?
for example as below:-

Details of Last Succesfull Logins are Below:
user1 pts/tc Sat May 13 12:00 still logged in
ora1 ftp Sat May 13 10:56 still logged in
user2 pts/td Sat May 13 10:28 - 10:53 (00:24)
user1 pts/tc Sat May 13 10:14 - 10:52 (00:38)
user1 pts/tc Sat May 13 10:10 - 10:14 (00:03)
ora1 pts/tc Sat May 13 09:52 - 10:03 (00:10)
ahle pts/tb Sat May 13 09:51 still logged in
ahle pts/ta Sat May 13 09:50 still logged in
ahle remshd Sat May 13 08:00 - 08:00 (00:00)

Can it show the usename and IP address as well in the log?
pls comment!

thks.

Use the -R switch with the last command in HP-UX. On Sun, the switch is -a.
