Hi,

With Rhel 7.4 just out, I am giving a try at the new audit.

Something seems strange to me.

With the default log_format = RAW in auditd.conf, I get the node= parameter right in rsyslog (through the syslog plugin).

If I switch to log_format = ENRICHED the parameter is missing altogether (no node=)

 

In both case local there is no node parameter in the local audit.log.

When I run ausearch --format text  from the  local host I never get node information.

When I run it from the data received by rsyslog (after stripping the prefix with sed 's/^.*audispd://'), I get the node information for the RAW format only.

 

Another point that bothers me is that I got an extra line did-unknown after each meaningful line when I use the remote content (RAW or ENRICHED)

This is what I get locally

At 16:03:55 07/08/17 fr18358, acting as root, successfully executed /bin/pkg-config

At 16:03:55 07/08/17 fr18358, acting as root, successfully executed /usr/libexec/grepconf.sh

At 16:03:55 07/08/17 fr18358, acting as root, successfully opened-file /dev/tty using grepconf.sh

At 16:03:55 07/08/17 fr18358, acting as root, successfully executed /bin/grep

This is what I get from remote data

At 15:43:52 07/08/17 fr18358, acting as root, successfully executed /bin/pkg-config

At 15:43:52 07/08/17  did-unknown

At 15:43:52 07/08/17 fr18358, acting as root, successfully executed /bin/grep

 

Please tell me what I am doing wrong.

Philippe
