SYNOPSIS

       fwcheck_psad [options]

DESCRIPTION

       fwcheck_psad  parses the iptables ruleset on the underlying system to see if iptables has been configured to log and block unwanted packets

	--fw-file
	      Allow the user to analyze a specific rulset from a file rather than the local policy.

	--fw-analyze
	      Analyze the local iptables ruleset and exit.

	--no-fw-search-all
	      Look for specific log prefix defined through the FW_MSG_SEARCH variable(s) in the configuration file.

	--Lib-dir
	      Specify path to psad lib directory.

	--help
	      Display the help message.

NAME

       psadwatchd - checks to make sure kmsgsd and psad are running.

SYNOPSIS

       psadwatchd [options]

DESCRIPTION

       psadwatchd  checks  on  an interval of every five seconds to make sure that kmsgsd and psad are running on the box.  If either of the other
       two daemons have died, psadwatchd will restart the daemon and notify each  email  address  listed  in  the  EMAIL_ADDRESSES  variable  (see
       /etc/psad/psad.conf)  that  the daemon has been restarted.  psadwatchd uses the psad.conf configuration file which by default is located at
       /etc/psad/psad.conf, but a different path can be specified on the command line.

OPTIONS

       -c <config-file>
              Specify path to config file instead of using the default configuration file /etc/psad/psad.conf.

       -D     Dump the configuration values that psadwatchd derives from /etc/psad/psad.conf (or other override files) on STDERR.

       -h     Display usage information and exit.

       -O <config-file>
              Override config variable values that are normally read from the /etc/psad/psad.conf file with values from the specified file.   Mul-
              tiple override config files can be given as a comma separated list.
