Description JW 2006-12-31 23:49:06 UTC
Description of problem:
Manual entry for lastcomm describes time field as "time the process exited"
which is incorrect.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
6.3.2-37

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.man lastcomm
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
Manual entry for lastcomm describes time field as "time the process exited"
which is incorrect.

Expected results:
Should say "time the process started".

Additional info:
The pertinent element in struct acct is ac_btime which is the process creation
time.  There is nothing in the accounting which stores the process termination
time (there probably should be, however).

Fixed in psacct-6.3.2-42.fc7.
