WTMP - last command


Hello All,

Something is bugging me, i dunno what a certain part of the wtmp log means.

I have this in the log

reboot system boot 2.4.9-12 Fri Sep 10 17:25 (3+16:19)


Specifically what does (3+16:19) mean? originally i thought that it meant reboot was issued on the command line with a time to run in 3 hours, but does it mean it was issued from terminal 3?

Any explaination would be greatful.

Thanks

Ethan

IIRC, that is the time since last reboot (3 days, 16 hours, 19 min).

BTW, welcome to LQ.
