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       NOTE:  The audit_setup utility has been replaced by the auditconfig graphical interface.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
