Re: Those Pesky Little Audit Files (ora_99999.aud)

[Mogens Nørgaard]

They were put there in 7.1 in order to comply with some security standard. And their purpose is exactly to prevent a dba from logging in without being monitored. It's in the 7.1 new features manual, as far as I remember.  That's also the version where it was suddenly not possible for the poor deveopers to see their own tracefiles, except if they set _trace_files_public=true.

IIRC, these files are generated whenever someone logs in as sysdba or
internal. I don't know of any way to stop them.

I thought I had these files stopped .... but apparently not.

Is there somone out there who can tell me how to stop the Audit files
from
appearing in the audit_file_dest ???   I thought if I set the
audit_trail to
false then these would stop as well ...   Apparently not.

Anyone have an idea how to turn them off ??

Thanks

Kevin
