.SH NAME
loginlog \- log of failed login attempts
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp

Each record contains the login name, tty specification, and time.

.LP
This is an \fBASCII\fR 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, \fBloginlog\fR 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 \fBroot\fR and group must be \fBsys\fR.
