11:01 p.m.
Looking for help/advice:
I had a new file (/usr/lib/AuditProxy) I installed via RPM with
CAP_AUDIT_WRITE assigned.
I noticed after a couple of days it was removed.
So I added a file watch and waited.
The file got changed, this was audited, however I cannot realy nail down
who/how it got changed as of yet...hopefully someone can either
enlighten me on this or else give me a clue on how to install a better
watch rule.
I used:
-w /usr/libexec/AuditProxy -k PROXY
and now that the CAP has been removed I see the following activity (with
"ausearch -i -k PROXY"):

So the file is getting moved to a temp file and then back (is the
prelink doing this?) with the result being that the CAP is erased.
Not certain what is doing this in my system.
Any clues or instructions on how to narrow the search?
Thx,
LCB.
