I looking for a way to identify when the audit daemon process
terminates normally and/or more importantly abnormally. Is there anyway
to attach to the daemon process and get a signal when it terminates? Any
other possible solutions would be appreciated. Thanks
Jerry.

Take a look at the man page for pwait (/usr/proc/bin/pwait).
Perhaps that will do what you're looking for.

1. Log file for BSM (auditd)

Hi all,

- I enabled BSM by runing the script /etc/security/bsmconv
- The file /etc/system is updated. I reboot the server.
- The process auditd is started at boot.

Now, i have binary file in directory :
/var/audit/20050309114754.not_terminated.MyServer

Can you tell me how can i read this file ?
Where process auditd log data (/var/adm/messages... ?)

Does BSM consume lot of Memory/CPU ?

ThankYou very much for your help
NS
