Hi, I have several systems that report 'w' and 'who' wrong/corrupted: root@neo:~# w USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE WHAT kyle p0 - 31Dec69 - w Obviously, Dec 31st 1969 is not right: root@neo:~# date Mon Jul 12 11:27:15 PDT 2004 I read a few manpages and did some google'ing, and couldn't find much of anything about rebuilding wtmp. I tried just moving wtmp to wtmp.old and then doing 'touch wtmp', then logging out and back in, but it still reads 31Dec69. Is there some way to fix this? Thanks all. -Kyle Mott
