Hy,

I’m using Etc.passwd() to gather information about the users.  
I’ve found that last\_logoff is always ‘0’, is it a bug or a problem  
with my installation ?

Anybody already using this package to collect this information ?

Once again the story of poor man responding to its own question:

It appears that windows does not implement this functionnality  
at this time.  
So the value found for last\_logoff is always 0 !
