<para>This parameter is only available if Samba has
been configured and compiled with the option <command moreinfo="none">
--with-utmp</command>. It specifies a directory pathname that is
used to store the wtmp or wtmpx files (depending on the UNIX system) that
record user connections to a Samba server. The difference with
the utmp directory is the fact that user info is kept after a user
has logged out.</para>
<para>See also the <link linkend="UTMP">
<parameter moreinfo="none">utmp</parameter></link> parameter. By default this is
not set, meaning the system will use whatever utmp file the
native system is set to use (usually
<filename moreinfo="none">/var/run/wtmp</filename> on Linux).</para>
<para>Default: <emphasis>no wtmp directory</emphasis></para>
<para>Example: <command moreinfo="none">wtmp directory = /var/log/wtmp</command></para>
