loginlog(4)                                                        loginlog(4)



NAME
     loginlog - log of failed login attempts

DESCRIPTION
     After five unsuccessful login attempts, all the 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.  Owner must be root and group must be sys.

FILES
     /var/adm/loginlog
