      pam_lastlog is a PAM module to display a line of information
      about the last login of the user. In addition, the module maintains
      the <code class="filename">/var/log/lastlog</code> file.
    </p><p>
      Some applications may perform this function themselves. In such
      cases, this module is not necessary.
