UTEMPTER_ADD_RECORD(3)                        FreeBSD Library Functions Manual

NAME
     utempter_add_record, utempter_remove_added_record,
     utempter_remove_record, addToUtmp, removeFromUtmp, removeLineFromUtmp -
     utempter compatibility interface

LIBRARY
     User Login Record Library (libulog, -lulog)

SYNOPSIS
     #include <utempter.h>

     int
     utempter_add_record(int fd, const char *host);

     int
     utempter_remove_added_record(void);

     int
     utempter_remove_record(int fd);

     void
     addToUtmp(const char *pty, const char *host, int fd);

     void
     removeFromUtmp(void);

     void
     removeLineFromUtmp(const char *pty, int fd);

DESCRIPTION
     The utempter_add_record() and addToUtmp() functions add a login record to
     the database for the TTY belonging to the pseudo-terminal master file
     descriptor fd, using the username corresponding with the real user ID of
     the calling process and the optional hostname host.  These functions are
     equivalent to ulog_login_pseudo(3).

     The utempter_remove_record() and removeLineFromUtmp() functions mark the
     login session as being closed for the TTY belonging to the pseudo-
     terminal master file descriptor fd.  These functions are equivalent to
     ulog_logout_pseudo(3).

     The utempter_remove_added_record() and removeFromUtmp() functions have
     the same properties as the previously mentioned functions, except that
     they use an internally cached value of the file descriptor passed to the
     login functions.

     The pty arguments of addToUtmp() and removeLineFromUtmp() are unused.

RETURN VALUES
     In this implementation, the utempter_add_record(),
     utempter_remove_added_record() and utempter_remove_record() always return
     a value of 0.
