Hi,
Recently one of the key config file of my application running on Linux
box was changed by some user 'accidentally".
I would like to know how can I watch my server and log changes being
made to specific folder or files. What time the change was made, which
user made it etc.
I looked at auditd but it looks so confusing.
Any idea about any other possible solution? If there is a central
logging for all my server "changes" it will be even better!
An alternate solution is that you can use git to manage the entire
configuration (/etc or any other directory). You can just do a
git init
in /etc and then add the files to the repository and commit them. You
can create a process through which any change done is committed, and
since now the files are version controlled you can revert to any of the
previous versions without any difficulty.
