The following commands are understood: last [option...] [username...] [tty...] wtmpdb last goes through the /var/lib/wtmpdb/wtmp.db database (or the database designated by the -f option) and displays a list of of all users logged in and logged out. The output can be restricted to different patterns via various options. If one or more usernames and/or ttys are given wtmpdb last will only show the entries matching those arguments. The login and logout times of the special user reboot are the boot and shutdown times of the system. -a, --hostlast Display hostnames in the last column. -d, --dns Translate IP addresses into a hostname. -f, --file FILE Use FILE as wtmpdb database. -F, --fulltimes Display full times and dates. -i, --ip Translate hostnames to IP addresses. -n, --limit N Display only the first N entries. -p, --present TIME Display who was present at TIME. -R, --nohostname Don't display any hostname or IP address. -S, --service Display PAM service used to login. -s, --since TIME Print only records more recent than TIME. -t, --until TIME Print only records until TIME. -w, --fullnames Display full IP addresses and user and domain names. -x, --system Display system shutdown entries. --time-format FORMAT Display timestamps in the specified FORMAT.
