sshd: lastlog_filetype: Couldn't stat /var/log/lastlog: No such file or directory.

Good day.

I see these errors in /var/log/auth.log:

sshd: lastlog_filetype: Couldn't stat /var/log/lastlog: No such file or
directory
sshd: lastlog_openseek: Couldn't stat /var/log/lastlog: No such
file or directory

How bad is this? And how I can fix it?

Thank You for Your time.

Information about users' last logins are missing if this file does not
exist, see lastlog(8).

Create that file:

# touch /var/log/lastlog
# chgrp utmp /var/log/lastlog
# chmod 664 /var/log/lastlog
