Hi

I am running SuSE 6.3 and when I do a 'last' it only outputs logins from this millenium. 'last reboot' outputs this, wtmp begins Sat Jan 1 00:33:59 2000 that is the time of my first login at new year's day.

/var/log/wtmp has been deleted/regenerated at the new year's day. It this a bug or a feature?

root should got an email that the old wtmp was moved to something like /var/log/wtmp-<date> because it grows to big. This has nothing to do with Y2K.
