Subject:   Weird utmp entries in 2.2?
Message-ID:  <199703281953.OAA10862@dcwi.com>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I reciently upgraded our primary & secondary servers to 2.2-RELEASE,
and since the 2.2.1-RELEASE fixes did not appear to be pertinent to 
us, I did not upgrade to 2.2.1.. (re-format, rather than upgrade)..
but enough background..

The problem appeared the first time i looked at last.. so i removed
/var/log/wtmp and toched a new one (since as i recall, a previous monthly
script would do this for us automatically).. and tried logging in again..
to receive more weirdness..

[root@dcwi 14:31 ~ 233 ]        last
ttyp5              jmp              Wed Dec 31 19:00   still logged in
jmp       ttyp4                     Wed Dec 31 19:00   still logged in

wtmp begins Wed Dec 31 19:00 

[root@dcwi 14:31 ~ 234 ]        date
Fri Mar 28 14:31:54 EST 1997

so any ideas about the dorked dates and incorrect entries?

Thanks for any help..
