Short Shot
man faillog
Thanks, good shot, but not exactly in the black :-)
The problems I have with it:
1. I can't disable temporarily
2. it seems it only works for console logins? So, won't work at all for my purpose.
3. I have it on some systems, but on others /var/log/faillog is missing although login.defs is the same and FAILLOG_ENAB activated. login.defs would also have nice options like FAIL_DELAY and LOGIN_RETRIES, but they don't seem to get used by PAM or also only for console logins.
