Which Package Contains lastb

Guess the title says it all, as I can't find this and I need to see what's in /var/log/btmp.

Cheers,
Eddie

Kinda crazy answering my own post, but after a bit of digging around I found it.

Looking through the Makefile for sysvinit, there's this line: cd $(ROOT)/usr/bin; ln -sf last lastb; chown $(BIN_COMBO) lastb

Now, that soft link is missing in Pat's doinst.sh script. All the other soft links are there, just not this one.

Cheers,
Eddie
