Well, I have a different view. Probably, it may be that it's some malware who has rendered your registry key unavailable, as intendedI would sugget you run an AntiVirus Scan as well as a setup to clean/repair the registry. Regards Tanishk -Original Message- From: ossec-list@googlegrou

You could just use the sms functionality built into OSSEC. Other than that, I guess looking at alerts.log would get you all or most of the information you need. On Mon, Dec 6, 2010 at 1:42 PM, 2xtreme wrote: > Hello, > > I was trying to setup OSSEC in the company that I work. > > So far I was abl

Hi, I have a centralized syslog that contains logs from Windows and Unix hosts (and devices). The logs are all single line logs, but with different signatures. E.g. the windows event log format is Sep 18 00:01:06 TXX2.syxd.com MSWinEventLog ... A sample unix log format is Sep 18 00:

Don't think format is your issue but look at /var/ossec/etc/decoder.xml, this is where the log format is interpreted. There is a catchall syslog rule that generates the "unknown problem". look at /var/ossec/rules/syslog_rules.xml If any of these word are found core_dumped|failure|error|attack|

Hey guys, Is there a specific command or flag in agent_control or syscheck_control that will display the actual changes to a file where report_changes was set to "yes" ? Or do I just have to go into the "/var/ossec/queue/diff/local/*" directory and view the changed files myself? Thanks!
