Shell scripts

1 New Member
Hey I was wondering if anyone knows how to display information about user logins in a shell script. For example is there code to display the most often logged in users or other things like that?

I know the last command gives about user logins but I don't know if I can manipulate the data like I need to.

I think there are access logs in your /var/log directory. There is no database keeping track of these, rather, you will need to grep or otherwise parse the files yourself to get the information you are looking for.
