PAM_LASTLOG2(8) System Administration PAM_LASTLOG2(8)
pam_lastlog2 - PAM module to display date of last login
pam_lastlog2.so [debug] [silent] [silent_if=<services>]
[database=<file>]
pam_lastlog2 is a PAM module to display a line of information
about the last login of the user. The module uses the
/var/lib/lastlog/lastlog2.db database file to store all
information.
Compared to pam_lastlog this PAM module is Y2038 safe and uses
sqlite3 to store the information.
debug
Print debug information.
silent
Avoid all messages except errors and don’t inform the user
about any previous login, only update the
/var/lib/lastlog/lastlog2.db database.
silent_if=<services>
The argument services is a comma separated list of PAM
services. If a service is listed here, the last login message
will not be shown.
database=<file>
Use file instead of /var/lib/lastlog/lastlog2.db.
The session module type is provided for displaying the
information about the last login and updating the lastlog file.
PAM_SUCCESS
Everything was successful.
PAM_SERVICE_ERR
Internal service module error. This includes error reading
from or writing to the database.
PAM_USER_UNKNOWN
User not known.
PAM_IGNORE
Returned by service types which do nothing.
Add the following line to e.g. /etc/pam.d/login to display the
last login time of a user:
session optional pam_lastlog2.so silent_if=gdm,gdm-password
It is up to the administrator to decide if the user can login
(optional/required) when pam_lastlog2 has returned an error.
