Greetings,

This is on a 4.0 test system.  I'm preping it
to move over a 3.9 system.  It was cvs updated
to -rOPENBSD_4_0 and new kernel then system
built.

Noticed that /var/log/failedlogin grew from 0
bytes to 304304 bytes.

I couldn't find much about the file. Some googling
brings some AIX related pages.  One reference to
3.7 COLUG[0] post.

A search in misc@ list on MARC doesn't really show
much either.  A few references between 2001-2004.

I don't see any tool that will display the contents
of it either.

Here is a hex dump of it:

00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

74 74 79 43 30 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

-rw-------  1 root  wheel  304304 Nov 16 22:35 failedlogin


Mainly empty with only a reference to:

ttyC0
 X]E


Could someone give me some pointers please?

TIA.
