I'm currently using AdventNet's EventLog Analyzer for auditing of a
secure Windows machine and thought it would be nice to use for a
secure RHEL 5.2 cluster as well since people would only need to use
one interface. It seems to do well with the syslog entries, but I
don't see anything about getting the auditd/ audit.log entries into
it. Can anyone point me to some information on how to do this or
should I give up on this and go the Prewikka route?
Isn't this a question for AdventNet?
I have posted the same question on their forum.
* How do you currently get the syslog data into AdventNet? Are you
directing AdventNet to read /var/log/message? Is AdventNet reading a
syslog socket?
The EventLog Analyzer (ELA) is monitoring port 6514 to receive
information that would normally go to rsyslog (it could use 514, but I
wanted to keep it separate).
* Log analyzers need to understand the contents of a log file, does
AdventNet know how to parse and interpret audit data?
As far as I can tell from reading through their forums and website it
doesn't currently handle the audit.log format.
Basically you can feed audit log data to an analyzer in two different
ways, tell it to monitor the /var/log/audit/audit.log file or write a
audispd plugin which sends the audit data to the analyzer (code is
simple). But first you had better check AdventNet can parse and
understand the data.
A pointer to a HowTo on audispd plugins would be appreciated, but I
thought perhaps someone had already done this and I wouldn't have to
write something on my own. You can't blame a guy for hoping.
