"write_logs = no" not working

(Apologies if this is a duplicate. gmane doesn't seem to be working.) I have a Banana Pi-based firewall system, which runs off a micro-SD card and sends all of its logs (including audit events) to a syslog server. I have set "write_logs = no" in /etc/audit/auditd.conf, but the local log file is still being written. (Commenting out the log_file line causes auditd to abort.) What do I need to do to disable writing the local file? (This is audit 2.6.5 on CentOS 7.) -- ======================================================================== Ian Pilcher arequipeno(a)gmail.com -------- "I grew up before Mark Zuckerberg invented friendship" -------- ========================================================================
