the current state of audit's capabilities. I've looked at:

If you're interested in RHEL4 then I suggest you look at the updates.
HP and IBM have both completed CAPP evaluations of RHEL4 and
when properly configured the system and audit framework supports what you want.
For details, check out HP's documentation at:
http://h71028.www7.hp.com/enterprise/downloads/RHEL-CAPP-EAL3-HP-Configur...
or IBM's at:
ftp://www6.software.ibm.com/software/developer/library/os-ltc-security/RH...
1) If someone tries to access an object (file, directory, program)
that
they don't have rights to the event needs to be recorded
You can configure the audit system to audit specific system calls that fail.
2) if someone logs into a system and su's to another user or series of
users their actions need to be traceable to the original login user's
id
The audit system keeps track of the login uid as well as the current uid,
so I believe it does what you want.
Can this be done with the current audit system in RHEL4 or will this not
be supported until RHEL5 is released? Are there any other Linux
distro's that can do this?
SLES8 as of SP3 can do the same thing, only with a different audit
framework.
If either of these are true where would I
look for information how to get this to work.
