Comment:
pam_lastlog only writes a string into the database. What this string
contains, depends on the calling application. So pam_lastlog cannot do
anything here, since it does not has the informations.
Beside that: Converting an IP into a hostname is not a 1:1 translation,
and converting the hostname back to an IP does not need to give you back
the original IP. So it does make more sense to store the IP then a faked
hostname you can never convert back to the calling IP address.
