Hello,
I have set some file monitoring audit rules on a directory and the audit log shows some
entries like
ausearch -if $LOGDIR -a 448424 -i

As you can see the full path of the file is available for the audit event, but yet the
aureport -f does not show the complete file name. Any idea why this is happening and what
should I do to get the full path as given in item1. It seems for some reason, it always
gives the filename in item0.
I have another entry where the inode is present but the name is (null).
ausearch -if $LOGDIR -a 448425 -i

Why is this coming as null for item1?
Another entry has a rename SYSCALL, which comes out
ausearch -if $LOGDIR -a 448427 -i

How can we get both the filenames (in item3 and item2) in the aureport?
Finally, can we have uid come out in the aureport along with auid? Any option/arguments
that might help?
Sorry, if this has already been asked many times, but I did not get my answers with the
limited search that I did.
Thanks in advance for the help.

Amit Katekar.
