NAME
       llconvert - Modify lastlog records from DIGITAL UNIX releases 4.0x and prior to new format

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/lbin/llconvert [-vnrp?h] input_file [output_file]

OPTIONS
       Restore new format to old format.  Verbose. Display lines while converting.  Do not preserve contents of input file.  Formatted print only.
       Do not convert. (May be used with the -r option).  Display usage message.

DESCRIPTION
       The llconvert command reads records from the lastlog file, such as /var/adm/lastlog, and converts the record format to the  updated  struct
       lastlog	format.  If  no  output file is specified or if the output file path is identical to the input file path, llconvert makes a backup
       copy of the original input file using the following algorithm: If filename.orig exists.	Where n is a unique number.

       The llconvert command attempts to detect an input file that is in the wrong format (for example, input file is already a new format  file).
       A warning message is issued in this case, but conversion continues.

RETURN VALUES
       Success.  An error occurred.

EXAMPLES
       To convert an old format accounting file to the new format: llconvert /var/adm/lastlog.prev

	      Upon  completion	of  this  command,  /var/adm/lastlog.prev  will have been converted to the new format. The original /var/adm/last-
	      log.prev is renamed to:

	      /var/adm/lastlog.prev.orig To convert a lastlog file in new format to the old format: llconvert -r  /var/adm/lastlog  /var/adm/last-
	      log.old

FILES
       Lastlog header file that defines the format for the lastlog file.  The active lastlog file.
