# User Sessions {#sec-user-sessions}
Systemd keeps track of all users who are logged into the system (e.g. on
a virtual console or remotely via SSH). The command `loginctl` allows
querying and manipulating user sessions. For instance, to list all user
sessions:
```ShellSession
$ loginctl
SESSION UID USER SEAT
c1 500 eelco seat0
c3 0 root seat0
c4 500 alice
```
This shows that two users are logged in locally, while another is logged
in remotely. ("Seats" are essentially the combinations of displays and
input devices attached to the system; usually, there is only one seat.)
To get information about a session:
```ShellSession
$ loginctl session-status c3
c3 - root (0)
Since: Tue, 2013-01-08 01:17:56 CET; 4min 42s ago
Leader: 2536 (login)
Seat: seat0; vc3
TTY: /dev/tty3
Service: login; type tty; class user
State: online
CGroup: name=systemd:/user/root/c3
├─ 2536 /nix/store/10mn4xip9n7y9bxqwnsx7xwx2v2g34xn-shadow-4.1.5.1/bin/login --
├─10339 -bash
└─10355 w3m nixos.org
```
This shows that the user is logged in on virtual console 3. It also
lists the processes belonging to this session. Since systemd keeps track
of this, you can terminate a session in a way that ensures that all the
session's processes are gone:
```ShellSession
# loginctl terminate-session c3
```
