Hi-

I use gkrellm to keep myself up to date with what kind of stuff is going on inside this box. I noticed a while ago that it reports 0 users are logged on, which isn't true, because I am logged on. I see this on both my 1.2 box and my 1.4 rc2 box. Also, if I issue the "w" command, I see 0 users also...

Code:

bob@beefsteak bob $ w
 12:48:23  up 2 days, 22:07,  0 users,  load average: 2.71, 1.49, 0.71
USER     TTY      FROM              LOGIN@   IDLE   JCPU   PCPU  WHAT
bob@beefsteak bob $


This is the same for both root and regular users. Any ideas why w and gkrellm doesn't report the users correctly?

Thanks,
tfandango

Moved from Installing Gentoo.

This was asked a while back, but I'm not finding the thread.

who command doesn't show all users

If anyone knows the "answer", I'd be glad to add a FAQ about it.
