    I noticed on SRX1500 and SRX5400 that /var/log/wtmp isn't being created thus show log user gives

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------
last: /var/log/wtmp: No such file or directory

    Using Junos: 15.1X49-D50.3.

    Hello ,

     

    It seems file /var/log/wtmp is missing. Please follow up below procedure.

     

    1. check if there is /var/log/wtmp.

    root@% ls -la /var/log/wtmp

     

    2. If no such file, we will create it.

    root@% touch /var/log/wtmp

    root@% chmod 664 /var/log/wtmp

    root@% chown root /var/log/wtmp

     

    3. check it again.

    root@% ls -la /var/log/wtmp .
