Date: Mon, 23 Sep 2002 07:20:19 +0000 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed Message-ID: X-OriginalArrivalTime: 23 Sep 2002 07:20:20.0234 (UTC) FILETIME=[AC8C06A0:01C262D1] Sender: owner-freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.org I've noticed something that I'm not sure is a bug or a feature. If a system is placed into single user mode over a remote terminal (I'm using ssh in case that matters) using 'shutdown now', then a 'who' is called (in single user mode) at the system console it will display a list of user who where connected at the time of the shutdown. My understanding of 'who' was that it showed connected users, not ghost. (from 'man who') The who utility displays information about currently logged in users. Its kind of a cool feature/bug but is it correct?
