57.Sh DESCRIPTION
58The
59.Fn getlastlogx
60function looks up the entry for the user with user id
61.Fa uid
62in the
63.Xr lastlogx 5
64file given by
65.Fa fname
66and returns it in
67.Fa \&ll .
68If the provided
69.Fa \&ll
70is
71.Dv NULL ,
72the necessary space will be allocated by
73.Fn getlastlogx
74and should be
75.Fn free Ns d
76by the caller.
77.Pp
78The
79.Fn getutmp
80function fills out the entries in the struct utmp
81.Fa u
82with the data provided in the struct utmpx
83.Fa ux .
84.Fn getutmpx
85does the opposite, filling out the entries in the struct utmpx
86.Fa ux
87with the data provided in the struct utmp
88.Fa u ,
89and initializing all the unknown fields to 0.
90The sole exception is the
91.Fa ut_type
92field, which will be initialized to
93.Dv USER_PROCESS .
94.Pp
95The
96.Fn updlastlogx
97function tries to update the information for the user with the user id
98.Fa uid
99in the
100.Xr lastlogx 5
101file given by
102.Fa fname
103with the data supplied in
104.Fa \&ll .
105A
106.Ft struct lastlogx
107is defined like this:
108.Bd -literal
109struct lastlogx {
110        struct timeval ll_tv;           /* time entry was created */
111        char ll_line[_UTX_LINESIZE];    /* tty name */
112        char ll_host[_UTX_HOSTSIZE];    /* host name */
113        struct sockaddr_storage ll_ss;  /* address where entry was made from */
114};
115.Ed
116All the fields should be filled out by the caller.
117.Pp
118The
119.Fn updwtmpx
120function updates the
121.Xr wtmpx 5
122file
123.Fa file
124with the
125.Xr utmpx 5
126entry
127.Fa utx .
128.Pp
129The
130.Fn utmpxname
131function sets the default
132.Xr utmpx 5
133database file name to
134.Fa fname .
135.Sh RETURN VALUES
136.Fn getlastlogx
137returns the found entry on success, or
138.Dv NULL
139if it could not open the database, could not find an entry matching
140.Fa uid
141in there, or could not allocate the necessary space (in case
142.Fa \&ll
143was
144.Dv NULL ) .
145.Pp
146.Fn utmpxname
147returns 1 on success, or 0 if the supplied file name was too long or
148did not end with
149.Sq x .
150.Pp
151.Fn updlastlogx
152and
153.Fn updwtmpx
154return 0 on success, or \-1 in case the database or file respectively
155could not be opened or the data not written into it.
