I've been seeing these messages for months..

Aug 31 20:19:29 cinq sshd[2342]: /var/log/lastlog: Permission denied

.. because sshd has dropped root privileges by the time pam_lastlog
tries to log the message.

I realise this was discussed on this list about 2 months ago, but it hasn't
been fixed yet. Why not just go back to using openssh's built-in lastlog
code until pam_lastlog can be made to work from within openssh?
