uring Audit Reports” (page 417) for details.

IMPORTANT: Controlling the Audit Daemon
Before configuring any of the components of the audit system, make sure that
the audit daemon is not running by entering
rcauditd status
as
root
.
On a default SUSE Linux Enterprise Server system, audit is started on boot, so
you need to turn it off by entering
rcauditd stop
. Start the daemon after
configuring it with
rcauditd start
.
31.1 Determining the Components to
Audit
Before setting out to create your own audit configuration, determine to which degree
you want to use it. Check the following rules of thumb to determine which use case
best applies to you and your requirements:
• If you require a full security audit for CAPP/EAL certification, enable full audit
for system calls and configure watches on various configuration files and directories,
similar to the rule set featured in
Chapter 32, Introducing an Audit Rule Set
(page 423). Proceed to Section 31.3, “Enabling Audit for System Calls” (page 414).
• If you require an occasional audit of a system call instead of a permanent audit for
system calls, use
autrace
. Proceed to Section 31.3, “Enabling Audit for System
Calls” (page 414).
• If you require file and directory watches to track access to important or security-
sensitive data, create a rule set matching these requirements. Enable audit as de-
scribed in
Section 31.3, “Enabling Audit for System Calls” (page 414) and proceed
to Section 31.4, “Setting Up Audit Rules” (page 415).
