Some additional findings on this problem. 1) I rebooted my server, and the same problems still exist under VNC 3.3.6. 2) Whether I "log out" of my X session or not makes no difference... there is invalid output with the 'who' command regardless... i.e., a corrupt /var/run/utmp file! 3) I've conf

I think you're right that this is just an xterm issue - VNC doesn't touch the utmp file at all, so I don't see how it could be responsible. I notice that xterm on my machine has +ut and -ut options which alter its utmp behaviour - maybe you could try these. Cheers Tristan - Original Message
