Hello,
 
I was wondering if someone could tell me how to prevent the "WHAT" column
when the "w" command is run.  For example, under Linux, the "su" command
would be the only thing shown when a user su-ed to another user.  This
provided a desirable degree of privacy.  Is there any similar method of
doing this under FreeBSD?

Thanks,
