utmp_update —
update utmpx database
utmp_update |
utmpx_entry |
utmp_update is a helper program to allow a
user to update his own utmpx(5)
entry. utmp_update does some consistency checks on
the
strvis(3)-encoded
utmpx_entry and then updates the
utmpx(5) database of currently
logged in users.
utmp_update should not be called directly,
but will normally only be called by
pututxline(3) if the
privileges of the calling user are not sufficient.
utmp_update returns 0 on success, and 1 if
an error occurred.
A utmp_update utility appeared in
NetBSD 2.0.
