1.201 OL08-00-020350

Information

OL 8 must display the date and time of the last successful account logon upon an SSH logon.

GROUP ID: V-248718
RULE ID: SV-248718r991589

Providing users with feedback on when account accesses via SSH last occurred facilitates user recognition and reporting of unauthorized account use.

Solution

Configure SSH to provide users with feedback on when account accesses last occurred by setting the required configuration options in "/etc/pam.d/sshd" or in the "sshd_config" file used by the system ("/etc/ssh/sshd_config" will be used in the example). Note that this file may be named differently or be in a different location if using a version of SSH that is provided by a third-party vendor.

Modify the "PrintLastLog" line in "/etc/ssh/sshd_config" to match the following:

PrintLastLog yes

The SSH service must be restarted for changes to "sshd_config" to take effect.
