NAME
       aulast - a program similar to last

SYNOPSIS
       aulast [ options ] [ user ] [ tty ]

DESCRIPTION
       aulast  is  a  program  that prints out a listing of the last logged in
       users similarly to the program last and	lastb.	Aulast	searches  back
       through	the audit logs or the given audit log file and displays a list
       of all users logged in (and out) based on the  range  of	 time  in  the
       audit logs. Names of users and tty’s can be given, in which case aulast
       will show only those entries matching the arguments. Names of ttys  can
       be abbreviated, thus aulast 0 is the same as last tty0.

       The  pseudo  user reboot logs in each time the system is rebooted. Thus
       last reboot will show a log of all reboots since the log file was  cre‐
       ated.

       The main difference that a user will notice is that aulast print events
       from oldest to newest, while last prints records from newest to oldest.
       Also,  the audit system is not notified each time a tty or pty is allo‐
       cated, so you may not see quite as many records	indicating  users  and
       their tty's.

OPTIONS
       --bad  Report on the bad logins.

       --extract
	      Write raw audit records used to create the displayed report into
	      a file aulast.log in the current working directory.

       -ffile Use the file instead of the audit logs for input.

       --proof
	      Print out the audit event serial numbers used to	determine  the
	      preceding	 line  of  the report. A Serial number of 0 is a place
	      holder and not an actual event serial number. The serial numbers
	      can  be used to examine the actual audit records in more detail.
	      Also an ausearch query is printed that will  let	you  find  the
	      audit records associated with that session.

       --stdin
	      Take audit records from stdin.

EXAMPLES
       To see this month's logins
       ausearch --start this-month --raw | aulast --stdin
