Here's a bizarre problem that I've been noticing for the past couple of weeks. If a user is erratically disconnected, and their sessions sticks around, the idle-time will jump to an unrealistic number. An error in the wtmp code somewhere perhaps? Here's an example: fire /home/caesar $ w 5:34PM up 9:04, 4 users, load averages: 0.08, 0.04, 0.01 USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE WHAT caesar p1 12.19.232.65 8:39AM 48 -bash (bash) caesar p2 12.19.232.65 2:50PM 2:33 tin caesar p3 12.19.232.65 5:21PM 2days -bash (bash) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ caesar p4 12.19.232.72 5:34PM - w World was installed this morning, from sources cvsuped AM on the 23rd.
