A big one. The 2.6.6 kernel is missing a lot of the code needed by the planned
implementation. You need to apply a lot of patches to get it close to the
2.6.12 kernel's implementation. Offhand, I don't know how tricky that would
be since we've been working with RHEL4 kernels.
2. I removed the laus-0.1-65RHEL3 rpm and installed
the audit-0.5-1 rpm.
Get the latest from rawhide. 0.6.9.
http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/core/development/SRPMS/audit-0.6.9-1.src...
4. I tried some auditctl commands, but had no clue how to
test the mix. I have no idea how to configure this and I
can't find any documentation on the interface.
Rawhide's version is much better. 0.5 doesn't even come close.
Where can I find documentation?
There's some docs in 0.6.9's package
How do I do at least a sanity check? (login and passwd file)
You need patched userland utilities. For example, a new pam, at,
glibc-kernheaders, shadow-utils, etc.
Do I need any kernel patches for 2.6.6 and audit-0.5-1?
Yes. However, I don't think they will be available under RHEL3. Its all aimed
at RHEL4.
Should I try the audit-0.6.5 and are there any kernel patches needed?
0.6.9
We have to be ready by Friday.
With this short of a deadline, you might be better off trying it on Fedora
Core 4 test 1 + rawhide updates. You can demonstrate some functionality with
that setup, but we are still developing the filesystem auditing and a few
other pieces. So, even rawhide is not a complete solution.
Thanks a million for any advice. If we are successful, I'm
fairly
certain this will ship with our product from now on. We'd be glad to
provide testing feedback to you.
Hope this helps...
