I upgraded a RedHat 3.0.3 system to 4.0 and noticed that now, whenever I
do the 'w' command, I get the following:
5:44pm up 7:48, 4 users, load average: 0.11, 0.20, 0.18
USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE JCPU PCPU WHAT
root tty1 9:58am 7:44m 0.22s 0.10s /bin/login -- r
compulov ttyp1 :0.0 9:59am 0.00s 0.00s ? -
compulov ttyp3 :0.0 5:41pm 8.00s 0.00s ? -
compulov ttyp5 :0.0 10:04am 28.00s 0.00s ? -
It only shows what's the user is running from a VC, but it does what's
show above when logged in from an xterm or even logged in from another
host. Also, my ps list doesn't show the tty that an app is running on.
This doesn't seem to affect anything, but it's very annoying, especially
if I'm logged in from work and want to see what I left running on what
term.
Any and all help would be extremely appreciated.
FYI, Linux 2.0.25 (although kernel version doesn't make a diff...),
and /var/run/utmp is
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 728 Nov 9 17:41 utmp
those are the right permissions, right?
