Good morning. I am trying to get the audit logs to be written only

audit.log. Currently they are written to audit.log as well as syslog.
Here is my rsyslog.conf file - what am I doing wrong?
module(load="imfile")
module(load="imklog")
module(load="imjournal")
global(net.enableDNS="off" workDirectory=/var/spool/rsyslog"
maxMessageSize="128k")

The thing that is writing them to rsyslog is systemd-journald. You can stop
this by running:
systemctl mask systemd-journald-audit.socket
systemctl stop systemd-journald-audit.socket
Then you will only have logs written to the audit log.
