[SOLVED] last command does not show more than 8 characters in username field

roopakl · 10-26-2012, 01:10 AM

Hi All,
There are 2 FTP user accounts as below

Code:

FTPD_Admin_htdocs
FTPD_Admin_htdocs123

if I do

Code:

last | less

the first(username) field is not showing more than 8 characters.
And for above 2 users also the username is ended to 8th character i.e "FTPD_Adm".
So I am unable to find out that as which are "FTPD_Admin_htdocs" login logs and which are "FTPD_Admin_htdocs123" login logs.
So please help me to get full username(like "FTPD_Admin_htdocs" and "FTPD_Admin_htdocs123") in the first field with only last command.

Thanks & Regards

Have you tried using last's -w flag? From the man page:

Quote:

-w Display full user and domain names in the output.
