You need to use the --input-logs option. If ausearch sees stdin as a pipe, it
assumes that is where it gets its data from. The input logs option tells it
to ignore the fact that stdin is a pipe and process the logs. Aureport has
the same problem and option to fix it.
We are running RHEL5.1 x64 if that matters.
This was fixed in the 1.6.7 general release and backported to the 1.6.5 RHEL5
release.
