Can anyone explain why my /var/log/lastlog is 19 megabytes? Here is the
output from the "lastlog" command:

Also lastlog is not rotated by logrotate. Is there a reason for that? I
found a changelog for logrotate with the comment:
* Thu Feb 24 2000 Erik Troan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
- don't rotate lastlog
But this doesn't say why. Couldn't find any relevant comments in the source
code either.
