I have set up several EC2 instances and intend to give multiple users access to them via SSH. Is there any file on the server that monitors who logs in and when?

Any help greatly appreciated.

    • the last(1) command, which reads /var/log/utmp
    • the utmp(5) file formats and the getutent() C function.
