Package: aide-common Version: 0.13.1-8 Severity: normal
aide issues warnings about /var/log/kern.log* files being added, changed and removed. This is a standard rotated log. I think this should be taken care of in 31_aide_syslog. I would propose the following rules for that: --- /var/log/kern\.log\.0$ LowLogs /var/log/kern\.log\.1\.gz$ RotatedLogs+ANF /var/log/kern\.log\.[2345]\.gz$ RotatedLogs /var/log/kern\.log\.9\.gz$ RotatedLogs+ARF /var/log/kern\.log$ Logs --- I'm not 100% sure these rules are correct as I never managed to get to the zero-change point in order for ifnochange to kick in. I will also note that the rules in 31_aide_syslog are a bit looser. They use [0-9]+ to handle all the logs all at once (some keep a history of only the last 4 files, others 6), and don't use +ARF on the last log either (won't that prevent ifnochange from ever kicking in?). Also these differences in how rotated logs are handled make it confusing when trying to add rules for new logs (not that things are not confusing to start with). Well, I hope the above rules will be useful anyway. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22.9fg2 (PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages aide-common depends on: ii aide [aide-binary] 0.13.1-8 Advanced Intrusion Detection Envir ii bsd-mailx [mailx] 8.1.2-0.20071201cvs-2 A simple mail user agent ii debconf [debconf-2 1.5.19 Debian configuration management sy ii liblockfile1 1.06.2 NFS-safe locking library, includes ii mailx 1:20071201-2 Transitional package for mailx ren ii ucf 3.004 Update Configuration File: preserv Versions of packages aide-common recommends: ii cron 3.0pl1-103 management of regular background p -- debconf information excluded -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
