Hello, This is to let everyone know that an audit-3.0 pre-release is being made. The big change that is prompting this email is that there is a config change that people might need to be aware of. One of the improvements is to drop audispd (realtime audit event dispatcher) and merge its functionality into auditd. This will eliminate one source of overflow messages and decrease the time from event occurrence to plugin seeing it. But since audispd doesn't exist anymore, I think that the location for the plugin directory should be moved from /etc/audisp/plugins.d/ to /etc/audit/plugins.d/. This way we have all audit config items in one place for the first time. There is a config option to point auditd to another directory for plugins in case you want to use the old location. I have already coordinated this with some selinux developers. They are moving the selinux troubleshooter plugin and adjusting selinux policy for the new locations and label transitions from auditd to the plugins. I don't know how many people beyond those I have contacted makes use of the audit dispatcher plugin capabilities for real time audit analysis. But that is why I'm doing a pre-release and making this announcement. You can find the pre-release here: http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/audit/audit-3.0-alpha.tar.gz Its sha256 hash is: 5c6bd356dfd8f2f6a35df35a8cd5138bd511413ee03d56076b47dc120f406dbf I will be blogging about the new capabilities in the coming weeks. If you are inclined, give it a try. There are changes that packagers will need to make to accommodate the move from audisp to auditd directly handling plugins. I have also pushed this into Fedora's rawhide and it should be available on the next compose. Thanks, -Steve
