+ <title>Description</title>
+
+ <para><filename>sd-login.h</filename> provides APIs to
+ introspect and monitor seat, login session and user
+ status information on the local system. </para>
+
+ <para>See <ulink
+ url="http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/multiseat">Multi-Seat
+ on Linux</ulink> for an introduction into multi-seat
+ support on Linux, the background for this set of APIs.</para>
+
+ <para>Note that these APIs only allow purely passive access
+ and monitoring of seats, sessions and users. To
+ actively make changes to the seat configuration,
+ terminate login sessions, or switch session on a seat
+ you need to utilize the D-Bus API of
+ systemd-logind.</para>
