[SOLVED] Number of users logged in

[kirkkaf13]

Hello,

I have just checked how long my machine has been running for and noticed 4 users logged in, so I used the 'who' command to see who they are but they are all my account.



What is going on here, how did I manage to log in 4 times?

Thanks.

That looks normal to me.

Yep, also see three sessions, but seems normal. The first two are for your desktop session, the others will probably be open terminals.

Hello,

Thank you, did not know this was normal, I thought I somehow logged in multiple times.

Kirk.
