[gentoo-user] sudo displays last login time

[gentoo-user] sudo displays last login time

[Michael Schmarck]

Hello.

Since "recently" (I think since 2nd half of last week), when I use
sudo on my ~x86, I get the last login time displayed:

$ LC_ALL=C sudo ls -1
Last login: Mon Mar 17 07:12:40 CET 2008 from winnb000488 on pts/6
10001~                                                        
[...]

Would anyone have an idea, about why that's happening?

Thanks a lot,

Michael

It's a recent pam update. I updated mine on 11 March, and it's these 
lines from files in /etc/pam.d/:

nazgul pam.d # grep pam_lastlog *
login:session    optional       pam_lastlog.so
system-login:session            optional        pam_lastlog.so


If you want to get rid of the last login notice, just comment out those 
two lines

That's it.

Thanks a lot!

however, if you comment them out then you also don't get the lastlog
message when you ssh or console log in.  How do you get the old
behaviour where sudo doesn't show your last login, but other login's do?
