     16 <h2><a name='sect2'>Description</a></h2>
     17 The <b>utmpset</b> program modifies the user accounting database
     18 <i><b>utmp</b>(5)</i> and optionally <i><b>wtmp</b>(5)</i> to indicate that the user on the terminal
     19 <i>line</i> has logged out. <p>
     20 Ordinary <i><b>init</b>(8)</i> processes handle utmp file records
     21 for local login accounting. The <i><b>runit</b>(8)</i> program doesn&rsquo;t include code to
     22 update the utmp file, the <i><b>getty</b>(8)</i> processes are handled the same as all
     23 other services. <p>
     24 To enable local login accounting, add <b>utmpset</b> to the <i><b>getty</b>(8)</i>
     25 <i>finish</i> scripts, e.g.: <p>
     26  $ cat /service/getty-5/finish<br>
     27   #!/bin/sh<br>
     28   exec utmpset -w tty5<br>

     37 <i>line</i> to the wtmp file. </dd>
