Hi , I am using the Net::SSH::Perl Module to execute the "w" command on the remote machine . I am getting the result on the display screen after executing my perl script as shown below. 
USER  TTY  FROM      LOGIN@   IDLE   JCPU   PCPU  
root  tty1  -        6:28am   1:04   1.04s  0.02s  
man   tty2  -        6:28am   15:59  0.05s  0.03s  
jen   tty3  -        6:28am  15:55   0.17s  0.05s

But I want to search only for root priviledged user's from the "w" command ."w" command lists all the user's who are logged to the remote machine including those without root priviledges.Like in the result shown above user "man" is not root priviledged user. How can I do that using the "w" command results. Also I want to search in the sshd.log or the messages log files so that i can get the disconnect time for the particular user who has logged out . Here is an example to illustrate what I want to achieve using Net::SSH::Perl module : If "w" output shows 3 user's logged in to the remote machine like the one shown above then I want to first check whether the user "man" is root priviledged or not .If the user "man" is root priviledged user then I want to search in the sshd.log or messages log files to remove the time of connect and disconnect time for the user "man". If the user "man" is not root priviledged user then no search is to be performed . Same with the user "jen" . How can I add a column to the above result to show the user disconnect time . I want the final display like : 
USER  TTY  FROM LOGIN@   IDLE   JCPU   PCPU  Disconnect
root  tty1  -   6:28am   1:04   1.04s  0.02s 6:45am 
man   tty2  -   6:28am   15:59  0.05s  0.03s 7:10am  
jen   tty3  -   6:28am  15:55   0.17s  0.05s 6:30am
