+.TH SESSREG 1 "sessreg 1.1.3" "X Version 11"
+.SH NAME
+sessreg \- manage utmpx/wtmpx entries for non-init clients
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B sessreg
+[-w \fIwtmpx-file\fP]
+[-u \fIutmpx-file\fP]
+[-L \fIlastlog-file\fP]
+[-l \fIline-name\fP]
+[-h \fIhost-name\fP]
+[-s \fIslot-number\fP]
+[-x \fIXservers-file\fP]
+[-t \fIttys-file\fP]
+[-V]
+[-a]
+[-d]
+\fIuser-name\fP
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+\fISessreg\fP is a simple program for managing utmpx/wtmpx and lastlog
+entries for xdm sessions.
+.\" __BEGIN_UTMPX_ONLY__
+.PP
+This version of \fIsessreg\fP is built using the modern POSIX
+.BR pututxline (3c)
+interfaces, which no longer require the slot-number, ttys-file, or
+Xservers-file mappings. For compatibility with older versions and other
+operating systems, the \fB-s\fP, \fB-t\fP, and \fB-x\fP flags are accepted,
+but ignored.
+.\" __END_UTMPX_ONLY__
+.SH USAGE
+.PP
+In Xstartup, place a call like:
+.nf
+
+ sessreg -a -l $DISPLAY -x /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers $USER
+
+.fi
+and in Xreset:
+.nf
+
+ sessreg -d -l $DISPLAY -x /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers $USER
+.fi
+.SH OPTIONS
+.IP "\fB-w\fP \fIwtmpx-file\fP"
+This specifies an alternate wtmpx file, instead of
+.BR "/var/log/wtmp" .
+The special name "none" disables writing records to the wtmpx file.
+.IP "\fB-u\fP \fIutmpx-file\fP"
+This specifies an alternate utmpx file, instead of
+.BR "/run/utmp" .
+The special name "none" disables writing records to the utmpx file.
+.IP "\fB-L\fP \fIlastlog-file\fP"
+This specifies an alternate lastlog file, instead of
+.BR "/var/log/lastlog" ,
+if the platform supports lastlog files.
+The special name "none" disables writing records to the lastlog file.
+.IP "\fB-l\fP \fIline-name\fP"
+This describes the "line" name of the entry. For terminal sessions,
+this is the final pathname segment of the terminal device filename
+(e.g. ttyd0). For X sessions, it should probably be the local display name
+given to the users session (e.g. :0). If none is specified, the
+terminal name will be determined with ttyname(3) and stripped of leading
+components.
+.IP "\fB-h\fP \fIhost-name\fP"
+This is set to indicate that the session was initiated from
+a remote host. In typical xdm usage, this options is not used.
+.IP "\fB-s\fP \fIslot-number\fP"
+.\" __BEGIN_UTMPX_ONLY__
+This option is accepted for compatibility, but does nothing in
+this version of \fIsessreg\fP.
+.\" __END_UTMPX_ONLY__
+.IP "\fB-x\fP \fIXservers-file\fP"
+.\" __BEGIN_UTMPX_ONLY__
+This option is accepted for compatibility, but does nothing in
+this version of \fIsessreg\fP.
+.\" __END_UTMPX_ONLY__
+.IP "\fB-t\fP \fIttys-file\fP"
+.\" __BEGIN_UTMPX_ONLY__
+This option is accepted for compatibility, but does nothing in
+this version of \fIsessreg\fP.
+.\" __END_UTMPX_ONLY__
+.IP "\fB-V\fP"
+This option causes the command to print its version and exit.
+.IP "\fB-a\fP"
+This session should be added to utmpx/wtmpx.
+.IP "\fB-d\fP"
+This session should be deleted from utmpx/wtmpx. One of -a/-d must
+be specified.
