[HOW TO] get few last logins on ftp bash->PHP

[dwander]

Code:

who --ips /var/log/wtmp | grep ftpd | awk '{print $3" "$4" "$1";"$3";"$4";"$5}' | sort -r | awk '{print $3}'

If you save output of this command to a file (use ">" instead of ">>"), then you can easy parse it with php function "fgetcsv" ... needle is ";".

This shows only few last logins, writed after last logrotate.

enjoy.

this is better than: ftpwho or ftptop?

and btw: this not working: who: unrecognized option '--ips'

yes, because, this is "ftplast" ... which version of who do you have ?

[ZiomekPL]

who (GNU coreutils) 8.5

and i think, that ExtendedLog /var/log/ftp-auth.log AUTH auth
is better for this
