am running debian unstable. I seem to be missing /var/log/wtmp from my system. I have searched debian and found no file by that name in the package contents searches. I searched google; I did find some correspondence on a cygwin list about it being missing. Their solution was to insert something in one of the postinstall scripts. Is there a more straightforward way of re-creating it on my system? I'm getting daily reports about logrotate not being able to find it. TIA.
/var/log/wtmp is created if and only if system accounting is enabled. It holds binary accounting data on what processes have been run and by whoom plus a few other things.
