I have a quick question about the name_format parameter in
audispd.conf.
When selecting options that require a dns lookup are these issued for each
record, or is the dns lookup issued one-time at startup? If dns lookup is
done for each record I'd prefer to use USER and NAME to force the issue,
though if not I'd rather just use the same file on all my servers.
Its done at the beginning of the event loop so that it never needs to be
looked up again.
I want to log both locally and to a central server. So which file
should
this be specified in /etc/audit/auditd.conf or /etc/audisp/audispd.conf or
both?
Both. They are independent of each other.
