Stale sessions can occur if a login service exits prematurely or fails to remove the session from the accounting database. .Pp Utilities such as .Xr w 1 will not display the identifier corresponding with a login session, since its value is typically only of use by the process managing the record. The following command can be used to obtain all records from the user accounting database's active session table, including its identifiers: .Pp .Dl getent utmpx active .Pp Identifiers can either be supplied in hexadecimal form as displayed by .Xr getent 1 , or as a string if the identifier allows such a representation. .Pp Because this utility requires write-access to the user accounting database, its use is limited to the super-user. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr getent 1 , .Xr w 1 , .Xr pututxline 3 .Sh HISTORY The .Nm utility appeared in .Fx 9.0 . .Sh AUTHORS .An Ed Schouten Aq ed@FreeBSD.org
