Hi all, On my OpenBSD installation (6.9) one of the log files created by login(1) seems to be a binary file: $ less /var/log/failedlogin "failedlogin" may be a binary file. See it anyway? The hexdump of it is:
openbsd# hexdump -C failedlogin 00000000 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |................| * 0004c2c0 74 74 79 43 32 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |ttyC2...........| 0004c2d0 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |................| * 0004c3e0 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 b2 f6 ef 60 00 00 00 00 |...........`....| 0004c3f0 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 74 74 79 43 33 00 00 00 |........ttyC3...| 0004c400 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |................| * 0004c520 89 97 d0 60 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |...`............| 0004c530 What can I learn from this logfile? A lot of repeating null bytes and "ttyC2" and "ttyC3" does not seems to be very informative. Is this an error?
