RE: Question about updating audit.rules
Thanks Steve, that's what I thought. I just wanted to unclutter my memory and get it
clear in my understanding.
I am moving on to another job, so I have decided to attempt to set up a more personal
email (driven) account with the Linux Audit Mailing List.
I hope to engage the List from that newly associated account in the near future.
Thanks,
Warron French, MBA, SCSA

But I would like to know is after updating audit.rules in Linux with
immutable mode turned on; is a restart of the audit process actually
required for the rules to take effect.
In immutable mode, a REBOOT is required to reload audit rules. In immutable mode, the
rules are locked into the kernel. So, the kernel needs restarting.
