Clearly there is a replacement, because the data is there: % w 23:53:23 up 1 min, 2 users, load average: 0.06, 0.03, 0.00 USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE JCPU PCPU WHAT ch 192.168.64.1 23:53 1:24 0.00s 0.02s sshd-session: ch [priv] ch - 23:53 1:24 0.00s 0.04s /usr/lib/systemd/systemd --user % loginctl SESSION UID USER SEAT LEADER CLASS TTY IDLE SINCE 1 1000 ch - 601 user - no - 2 1000 ch - 606 manager - no - 2 sessions listed. But who: % who % Chris PS: Lack of tty in the list is IIRC some problem with openssh not passing the TTY to PAM, but this is a separate thing.
