AUDISPD.CONF:(5) System Administration Utilities AUDISPD.CONF:(5)
audispd.conf - the audit event dispatcher configuration file
audispd.conf is the file that controls the configuration of the audit
event dispatcher. Each line should contain one configuration keyword,
an equal sign, and then followed by appropriate configuration
information. All option names and values are case insensitive. The
keywords recognized are listed and described below. Each line should
be limited to 160 characters or the line will be skipped. You may add
comments to the file by starting the line with a '#' character.
q_depth
This is a numeric value that tells how big to make the
internal queue of the audit event dispatcher. A bigger queue
lets it handle a flood of events better, but could hold events
that are not processed when the daemon is terminated. If you
get messages in syslog about events getting dropped, increase
this value. The default value is 80.
overflow_action
This option determines how the daemon should react to
overflowing its internal queue. When this happens, it means
that more events are being received than it can get rid of.
This error means that it is going to lose the current event
its trying to dispatch. It has the following choices: ignore,
syslog, suspend, single, and halt. If set to ignore, the
audisp daemon does nothing. syslog means that it will issue a
warning to syslog. suspend will cause the audisp daemon to
stop processing events. The daemon will still be alive. The
single option will cause the audisp daemon to put the computer
system in single user mode. halt option will cause the audisp
daemon to shutdown the computer system.
priority_boost
This is a non-negative number that tells the audit event
dispatcher how much of a priority boost it should take. This
boost is in addition to the boost provided from the audit
daemon. The default is 4. No change is 0.
max_restarts
This is a non-negative number that tells the audit event
dispatcher how many times it can try to restart a crashed
plugin. The default is 10.
name_format
This option controls how computer node names are inserted into
the audit event stream. It has the following choices: none,
hostname, fqd, numeric, and user. None means that no computer
name is inserted into the audit event. hostname is the name
returned by the gethostname syscall. The fqd means that it
takes the hostname and resolves it with dns for a fully
qualified domain name of that machine. Numeric is similar to
fqd except it resolves the IP address of the machine. User is
an admin defined string from the name option. The default
value is none.
name This is the admin defined string that identifies the machine
if user is given as the name_format option.
plugin_dir
This is the location that audispd will use to search for its
plugin configuration files.
