Package: libpam-modules
Version: 0.79-3.1
Severity: wishlist

When users punch in the wrong password to applications using PAM,
pam_unix logs these to auth.log, e.g.:

  saslauthd[18553]: (pam_unix) authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 
tty= ruser= rhost=

What I am missing is entries in the logname= and rhost= fields.
Could these please contain the requested username (if non-null), and
the IP or host address of the remote host respectively? I imagine
PAM has these data available at the time of the request.

Cheers,
