From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050915 Firefox/1.0.7 Description of problem: /usr/include/bits/utmp.h: #define UT_NAMESIZE 32 but... in last.c (from sysvinit sources) enforcese a %8.8 format mask for usernames. Since we have longer usernames now (courtesy winbind), last has suddenly become useless. The name of our domain is longer than 8 characters, so although the information is there in the utmp file, last can't display it! Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): SysVinit-2.85-4 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enable winbindd 2. Set "utmp = yes" in smb.conf 3. Run "last" 4. See useless output :-( Actual Results: [root@Vailtech root]# last root pts/0 corporate.dryden Tue Nov 1 15:40 still logged in DRYDENDO smb/4 10.0.1.56 Tue Nov 1 15:29 still logged in DRYDENDO smb/3 10.0.1.52 Tue Nov 1 15:26 still logged in root pts/0 10.0.1.91 Tue Nov 1 15:24 - 15:27 (00:03) DRYDENDO smb/1 10.0.1.51 Tue Nov 1 15:22 still logged in DRYDENDO smb/1 10.0.1.51 Tue Nov 1 15:22 - 15:22 (00:00) root smb/1 10.0.1.51 Tue Nov 1 15:21 - 15:21 (00:00) DRYDENDO smb/2 10.0.50.235 Tue Nov 1 15:19 still logged in DRYDENDO smb/1 10.0.1.51 Tue Nov 1 15:16 - 15:20 (00:03) root pts/0 corporate.dryden Tue Nov 1 13:26 - 15:19 (01:52) Expected Results: [root@Vailtech root]# widelast root pts/0 corporate.dryden Tue Nov 1 15:40 still logged in DRYDENDOMAIN\jsalina smb/4 10.0.1.56 Tue Nov 1 15:29 still logged in DRYDENDOMAIN\jburgstaler smb/3 10.0.1.52 Tue Nov 1 15:26 still logged in root pts/0 10.0.1.91 Tue Nov 1 15:24 - 15:27 (00:03) DRYDENDOMAIN\dsmith smb/1 10.0.1.51 Tue Nov 1 15:22 still logged in DRYDENDOMAIN\dsmith smb/1 10.0.1.51 Tue Nov 1 15:22 - 15:22 (00:00) root smb/1 10.0.1.51 Tue Nov 1 15:21 - 15:21 (00:00) DRYDENDOMAIN\lrobinson smb/2 10.0.50.235 Tue Nov 1 15:19 still logged in DRYDENDOMAIN\dsmith smb/1 10.0.1.51 Tue Nov 1 15:16 - 15:20 (00:03) root pts/0 corporate.dryden Tue Nov 1 13:26 - 15:19 (01:52) Additional info: Easily fixed: sed -e 's/%8.8/%32.2/' last.c I'm sure that would break something else somewhere, so possibly a new command-line switch that causes printf to use "%UT_NAMESIZE.UT_NAMESIZE" instead of "%8.8" ?
