auditconfig(8) System Manager's Manual auditconfig(8) NAME
auditconfig, audit_setup - Audit subsystem configuration graphical interface (Enhanced Security) SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/sysman auditconfig NOTE: The audit_setup utility has been replaced by the auditconfig graphical interface. DESCRIPTION
The graphical user interface is used interactively to establish the audit environment on your system. The interface can be selected from the Sysman menu, syman_station (including PC clients), or it can be started from the command line. See the sysman(8) and syman_station(8) reference pages for more details. If a kernel rebuild is required as part of the configuration, auditconf guides the user through the rebuild and reboot. The auditconfig interface configures the following aspects of the audit subsystem: Location of the audit logs. The /var/audit/ directory is the default area. Action for the audit subsystem to take if the file space allocated for audit logs is exhausted. Trimming of audit logs. Enable accepting audit data from remote systems. Select the profiles/categories of events to be audited. Include environment strings with an or system call. You must be root to run FILES
/etc/sec/event_aliases A set of aliases by which logically related groupings of events can be constructed. You can modify this set of aliases to suit your site's requirements. /etc/sec/auditmask_style Auditmask style selections. /etc/sec/auditd_clients A list of hosts from which audit data can be accepted. /etc/sec/auditd_loc A list of alternative locations in which auditd stores audit data when an overflow condition is reached. /etc/sec/audit_events A list of all security-relevant system calls and trusted (application) events. You can modify this file or use it as a template. /etc/sec/file_objects/* The list of files that auditconfig used to enable object selection or deselection. /etc/rc.config.common The cluster-wide rc variables for the audit subsystem. /etc/sec/rc_audit_events Used for input to for audit events during system initialization. /etc/sec/fs_objects Created when object (de)selection is derived from a profile(category). It contains the selected profile's entries of file objects. RELATED INFORMATION

audit(1M) audit(1M) NAME
audit - control the behavior of the audit daemon SYNOPSIS
audit -n | -s | -t | -v [path] The audit command is the system administrator's interface to maintaining the audit trail. The audit daemon can be notified to read the con- tents of the audit_control(4) file and re-initialize the current audit directory to the first directory listed in the audit_control file or to open a new audit file in the current audit directory specified in the audit_control file, as last read by the audit daemon. Reading audit_control also causes the minfree and plugin configuration lines to be re-read and reset within auditd. The audit daemon can also be signaled to close the audit trail and disable auditing. -n Notify the audit daemon to close the current audit file and open a new audit file in the current audit directory. -s Notify the audit daemon to read the audit control file. The audit daemon stores the information internally. If the audit daemon is not running but audit has been enabled by means of bsmconv(1M), the audit daemon is started. -t Direct the audit daemon to close the current audit trail file, disable auditing, and die. Use -s to restart auditing. -v path Verify the syntax for the audit control file stored in path. The audit command displays an approval message or outputs specific error messages for each error found. The audit command will exit with 0 upon success and a positive integer upon failure. /etc/security/audit_user /etc/security/audit_control See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ | ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Availability |SUNWcsu | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Stability |Evolving | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ bsmconv(1M), praudit(1M), audit(2), audit_control(4), audit_user(4), attributes(5) The functionality described in this man page is available only if the Basic Security Module (BSM) has been enabled. See bsmconv(1M) for more information. The audit command does not modify a process's preselection mask. It functions are limited to the following: o affects which audit directories are used for audit data storage; o specifies the minimum free space setting; o resets the parameters supplied by means of the plugin directive. For the -s option, audit validates the audit_control syntax and displays an error message if a syntax error is found. If a syntax error message is displayed, the audit daemon does not re-read audit_control. Because audit_control is processed at boot time, the -v option is provided to allow syntax checking of an edited copy of audit_control. Using -v, audit exits with 0 if the syntax is correct; otherwise, it returns a positive integer. The -v option can be used in any zone, but the -t, -s, and -n options are valid only in local zones and, then, only if the perzone audit policy is set. See auditd(1M) and auditconfig(1M) for per-zone audit configuration. 25 May 2004 audit(1M)
