Current logins go in utmp; wtmp is the log.
Most likely you've got more than one utmp file. There are three
locations for utmp; make sure they all refer to the same file:
/etc/utmp
/var/adm/utmp
/var/run/utmp
In any event, the current versions of rlogind and telnetd can be
gotten from NetKit-B-0.07A or NetKit-B-0.08 (which I will be releasing
later tonight.)
Please note that "NetKit-B-0.07B" is a bogus unauthorized release;
please delete it and definitely don't use it.
