Check Text (C-65091r996531_chk)
Verify SLEM 5 users are provided with feedback on when account accesses last occurred with the following command:

> grep pam_lastlog /etc/pam.d/login
session required pam_lastlog.so showfailed

If "pam_lastlog" is missing from "/etc/pam.d/login" file, the "silent" option is present, the second column value different from "requisite", or the returned line is commented out, this is a finding.
Fix Text (F-64999r996532_fix)
Configure SLEM 5 to provide users with feedback on when account accesses last occurred by setting the required configuration options in "/etc/pam.d/login".

Add the following line to the top of "/etc/pam.d/login":

session required pam_lastlog.so showfailed
