Package: aide Version: 0.16-2~zg90+1 Severity: normal Hi,
I would like to verify the database mentioned in aide output before copying it over to the input database name. That does not seem to work: [19/5003]mh@ivanova:~ $ ls -al /var/lib/aide/aide.db.new output.aide -rw-rw-r-- 1 mh mh 2,1M Apr 17 11:36 output.aide -rw------- 1 root root 71M Apr 17 11:36 /var/lib/aide/aide.db.new [20/5004]mh@ivanova:~ $ grep SHA512 output.aide | tail -n 1 SHA512 : LhaYUYpxlUaOFnLffOnCyxm8gq6rwxQW [21/5005]mh@ivanova:~ $ sudo openssl sha256 -binary /var/lib/aide/aide.db.new | openssl base64 rN/Af3eq+dKO6DKmpN1XOs+vpH6IQ3qFrELjhslp1Qs= [22/5006]mh@ivanova:~ $ sudo zcat /var/lib/aide/aide.db.new | openssl sha256 -binary | openssl base64 5uIy2b4L4ckKlzZ6o5UMlePKyKdRR8u/YhgciUQlFWg= [23/5007]mh@ivanova:~ $ What am I supposed to do with aide.db.new if I want the sha256 (or other) checksums to match aide's own output?
