utmpset(8)                                                    System Manager's Manual                                                   utmpset(8)

NAME
       utmpset - logout a line from utmp and wtmp file

SYNOPSIS
       utmpset [ -w ] line

DESCRIPTION
       The utmpset program modifies the user accounting database utmp(5) and optionally wtmp(5) to indicate that the user on the terminal line has
       logged out.

       Ordinary init(8) processes handle utmp file records for local login accounting.  The runit(8) program doesn't include code  to  update  the
       utmp file, the getty(8) processes are handled the same as all other services.

       To enable local login accounting, add utmpset to the getty(8) finish scripts, e.g.:

        $ cat /service/getty-5/finish
        #!/bin/sh
        exec utmpset -w tty5
        $

OPTIONS
       -w     wtmp. Additionally to the utmp file, write an empty record for line to the wtmp file.

EXIT CODES
       utmpset returns 111 on error, 1 on wrong usage, 0 in all other cases.
