NAME
     loginlog - log of failed login attempts

DESCRIPTION
     After five unsuccessful login attempts, all the previous attempts are
     logged in the file /var/adm/loginlog. This file contains one record
     for each failed attempt. Each record contains the login name, tty
     specification, and time.

     This is an ASCII file. Each field within each entry is separated from
     the next by a colon. Each entry is separated from the next by a new
     line.

     By default, loginlog does not exist, so no logging is done. To enable
     logging, the log file must be created with read and write permission
     for owner only. The owner must be root and group must be sys.

FILES
     /var/adm/loginlog
