> View the last logged in users.
- View last logins, their duration and other information as read from `/var/log/wtmp`:
`last`
- Specify how many of the last logins to show:
`last -n {{login_count}}`
- Print the full date and time for entries and then display the hostname column last to prevent truncation:
`last -F -a`
- View all logins by a specific user and show the IP address instead of the hostname:
`last {{username}} -i`
- View all recorded reboots (i.e., the last logins of the pseudo user "reboot"):
`last reboot`
- View all recorded shutdowns (i.e., the last logins of the pseudo user "shutdown"):
`last shutdown`
