You're right. journalctl does have the info.
And it does also log failed local attempts (although it seems to log all 
unknown accounts as UNKNOWN, rather than what was actually tried).

I use a Perl script to get all failures since the last time it was run
(it keeps a timestamp) and send me an email. It runs every night.

So I'll try a rewrite to using journalctl.

Title:
  last and lastb missing in 24.10

Status in util-linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The last and lastb commands have disappeared from util-linux at 24.10!

  This is odd, as the binaries from 24.04 actually run on 24.10, so the
  data is clearly still being collected and in the same format.

  Ubuntu: 24.10 (Oracular Oriole).

  Package: util-linux
  Version: 2.40.2-1ubuntu1
