Name
       utmp, wtmp - login records

Syntax

	       char    ut_host[16];	       /* host name, if remote */
	       long    ut_time; 	       /* time on */
       };

       vertical  bar  (|)  or  a right brace (}) indicate the system-maintained time just before and just after a command has changed the system's
       timeframe.
