Steps to reproduce:
$ ssh badname@localhost # hit 'enter' three times to fail logging in.
$ sudo lastb

Expected outcome:
"lastb" reports something similar to:
"badname ssh:pts/1 localhost Sun Mar 27 17:01 - 17:01 (04:00)"
just as it does when a bad login attempt is made using /bin/login, or when using sshd on other distributions of linux (CentOS, Fedora, Arch, SUSE, ...etc)

Actual outcome
No mention of a bad login attempt in lastb output; /var/log/btmp modify time and byte size is unchanged.
