<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
<P>
<I>Sessreg</I> is a simple program for managing utmpx/wtmpx and lastlog
entries for xdm sessions.
<P>
This version of <I>sessreg</I> is built using the modern POSIX
<B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?3c+pututxline">pututxline</A></B>(3c)
interfaces, which no longer require the slot-number, ttys-file, or
Xservers-file mappings. For compatibility with older versions and other
operating systems, the <B>-s</B>, <B>-t</B>, and <B>-x</B> flags are accepted,
but ignored.
<A NAME="lbAE">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>USAGE</H2>
<P>
In Xstartup, place a call like:
<PRE>
sessreg -a -l $DISPLAY -x /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers $USER
</PRE>
and in Xreset:
<PRE>
sessreg -d -l $DISPLAY -x /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers $USER
</PRE>

<H2>OPTIONS</H2>
<DL COMPACT>
<DT id="1"><B>-w</B> <I>wtmpx-file</I><DD>
This specifies an alternate wtmpx file, instead of
<B>/var/log/wtmp</B>.
The special name &quot;none&quot; disables writing records to the wtmpx file.
<DT id="2"><B>-u</B> <I>utmpx-file</I><DD>
This specifies an alternate utmpx file, instead of
<B>/var/run/utmp</B>.
The special name &quot;none&quot; disables writing records to the utmpx file.
<DT id="3"><B>-L</B> <I>lastlog-file</I><DD>
This specifies an alternate lastlog file, instead of
<B>/var/log/lastlog</B>,
if the platform supports lastlog files.
The special name &quot;none&quot; disables writing records to the lastlog file.
<DT id="4"><B>-l</B> <I>line-name</I><DD>
This describes the &quot;line&quot; name of the entry. For terminal sessions,
this is the final pathname segment of the terminal device filename
(e.g. ttyd0). For X sessions, it should probably be the local display name
given to the users session (e.g. :0). If none is specified, the
terminal name will be determined with <A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?3+ttyname">ttyname</A>(3) and stripped of leading
components.
<DT id="5"><B>-h</B> <I>host-name</I><DD>
This is set to indicate that the session was initiated from
a remote host. In typical xdm usage, this options is not used.
<DT id="6"><B>-s</B> <I>slot-number</I><DD>
This option is accepted for compatibility, but does nothing in
this version of <I>sessreg</I>.
<DT id="7"><B>-x</B> <I>Xservers-file</I><DD>
This option is accepted for compatibility, but does nothing in
this version of <I>sessreg</I>.
<DT id="8"><B>-t</B> <I>ttys-file</I><DD>
This option is accepted for compatibility, but does nothing in
this version of <I>sessreg</I>.
<DT id="9"><B>-V</B><DD>
This option causes the command to print its version and exit.
<DT id="10"><B>-a</B><DD>
This session should be added to utmpx/wtmpx.
<DT id="11"><B>-d</B><DD>
This session should be deleted from utmpx/wtmpx. One of -a/-d must
be specified.
