Check Text (C-234873r991589_chk)
Verify the SUSE operating system users are provided with feedback on when account accesses last occurred.
Check that "pam_lastlog" is used and not silent with the following command:
> grep pam_lastlog /etc/pam.d/login
session required pam_lastlog.so showfailed
If "pam_lastlog" is missing from "/etc/pam.d/login" file, the "silent" option is present, or the returned line is commented out, this is a finding.
