    NAME
           fwtmp, wtmpfix -	manipulate connect accounting records
    
    SYNOPSIS
           /usr/lib/acct/fwtmp [-ic]
    
    
           /usr/lib/acct/wtmpfix [file]...
    
    
    DESCRIPTION
           fwtmp  reads from the standard input and	writes to the standard output,
           converting binary records of the	type found in /var/adm/wtmpx  to  for-
           matted  ASCII records. The ASCII	version	is useful when it is necessary
           to edit bad records.
    
    
           wtmpfix examines	the standard input or named  files  in	utmpx  format,
           corrects	 the  time/date	 stamps	 to  make  the entries consistent, and
           writes to the standard output. A	hyphen (-) can be  used	 in  place  of
           file  to	 indicate the standard input. If time/date corrections are not
           performed, acctcon(1M) will fault  when	it  encounters	certain	 date-
           change records.
    
    
           Each time the date is set, a pair of date change	records	are written to
           /var/adm/wtmpx. The first record	is the old date	denoted	by the	string
           "old  time"  placed  in the line	field and the flag  OLD_TIME placed in
           the type	field of the utmpx structure. The second record	specifies  the
           new date	and is denoted by the string new time placed in	the line field
           and the flag  NEW_TIME placed in	the type  field.  wtmpfix  uses	 these
           records to synchronize all time stamps in the file.
    
    
           In  addition  to	 correcting  time/date	stamps,	wtmpfix	will check the
           validity	of the name  field  to	ensure	that  it  consists  solely  of
           alphanumeric characters or spaces. If it	encounters a name that is con-
           sidered invalid,	it will	change the login name to INVALID and  write  a
           diagnostic  to  the  standard  error.  In this way, wtmpfix reduces the
           chance that  acctcon  will  fail	 when  processing  connect  accounting
           records.
