utmps - a secure utmpx and wtmp implementation ---------------------------------------------- utmps is a library implementing the utmpx.h family of functions, for use with C libraries that do not implement them, such as musl - or that do implement them, but in an insecure way, such as... all the other libcs. Its particularity is that it does not use setuid or setgid programs or files; it does not give random programs the right to modify system-wide files. Instead, it comes with a daemon that must be running for utmp account to be functional, and that takes charge of the utmp data management itself; utmpx.h primitives simply communicate with that daemon. See https://skarnet.org/software/utmps/ for details. * Installation ------------ See the INSTALL file. * Contact information ------------------- Laurent Bercot <ska-skaware at skarnet.org>
