About¶ ↑

The solaris-utmpx gem helps with the reading and writing of Solaris binary utmpx(4) and wtmpx(4) files.

Examples¶ ↑

Read and display all records in wtmpx¶ ↑

require 'solaris/utmpx'

io = File.open('/var/adm/wtmpx', 'r')
reader = Solaris::Utmpx.new(:endian => :little)
while !io.eof? do
  puts reader.read(io)
end

Filter all root entries from wtmpx¶ ↑

require 'solaris/utmpx'

io = File.open('/var/adm/wtmpx', 'r')
reader = Solaris::Utmpx.new(:endian => :little)
while !io.eof? do
  record = reader.read(io)
  print record.to_binary_s unless record.ut_user == 'root'
end
