Logging in/out is done in 2 places. First, pam records what it knows. But the
entry point daemon is also supposed to send USER_LOGIN and USER_LOGOUT
events.
Complete information is here:
https://github.com/linux-audit/audit-documentation/wiki/SPEC-User-Login-Lifecycle-EventsGdm, Kdm, and sshd all have been updated to record these events. All that is
needed is to configure --with-audit during the package build. By now, I would
expect all distros to do that.
