wtmp/$M1D4 values

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA512


On a 7.4 AMD system I have modified some config file
so that /var/log/wtmp is extended to 15 day:

atlas:/$ date
Sat Aug 24 04:18:40 MDT 2024
atlas:/$ last
dhu : Thu Aug 15 22:52 still logged in
reboot ~ Thu Aug 15 22:51
shutdown ~ Thu Aug 15 22:50
dhu : Thu Aug 15 22:36 - shutdown (00:14)
reboot ~ Thu Aug 15 22:36
shutdown ~ Thu Aug 15 22:35
dhu : Thu Aug 15 22:16 - shutdown (00:18)
reboot ~ Thu Aug 15 22:16
shutdown ~ Thu Aug 15 22:15
dhu ttypc 184.70.166.126 Fri Aug 09 13:49 - 13:49 (00:00)

wtmp begins Fri Aug 9 13:49 2024
atlas:/$

And now I cannot find where this is set. It is not in /etc/syslog.conf or /etc/newsyslog.conf

If anyone can tell me where this is set OR where the value for $M1D4 in /etc/newsyslog.conf is
obtained from, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,

Dhu
