UTXRM(8) FreeBSD System Manager's Manual UTXRM(8) NAME utxrm -- remove sessions from the user accounting database SYNOPSIS utxrm identifier ... DESCRIPTION The utxrm utility can be used to remove stale sessions from the user accounting database, by referring to their identifier. Stale sessions can occur if a login service exits prematurely or fails to remove the session from the accounting database. Utilities such as w(1) will not display the identifier corresponding with a login session, since its value is typically only of use by the process managing the record. The following command can be used to obtain all records from the user accounting database's active session table, includ- ing its identifiers: getent utmpx active Identifiers can either be supplied in hexadecimal form as displayed by getent(1), or as a string if the identifier allows such a representation. Because this utility requires write-access to the user accounting data- base, its use is limited to the super-user. SEE ALSO getent(1), w(1), pututxline(3). HISTORY The utxrm utility appeared in FreeBSD 9.0. AUTHORS Ed Schouten <ed@FreeBSD.org> FreeBSD 11.1 February 19, 2011 FreeBSD 11.1
