If set LOG_OK_LOGINS to 'yes' in login.defs, where are log-data of LOG_OK logged?

Hello, I'm k.um.
I want to know OK_DATA at login.
and I set 'LOG_OK_LOGINS' to 'yes' in /etc/login.defs,
but I don't know where that log-data are created.
Please tell me how to log at OK.

/var/log/secure

Thanks,
but the log-data of login was not written in /etc/log/secure, though I did by both root and user.
I am using slackware 12.2 or 13.37.
This changed to PAM, didn't this.(but I don't know.)

It works here in 14.0

You mention PAM, why?
Is this a stock Slackware system or has it been modified?
If core utilities like login have been modified to use PAM then there is no guarantee that anyone can help you.

I have not modified.

Self Res.

I appended 'auth.*' to /etc/syslog.conf.

Code:

# Private authentication message logging:
auth.*;authpriv.*          -/var/log/secure

then, login-info was logged.
