AUDISP-REMOTE:(8) System Administration Utilities AUDISP-REMOTE:(8)NAMEaudisp-remote - plugin for remote logging
SYNOPSISaudisp-remoteDESCRIPTIONaudisp-remote is a plugin for the audit event dispatcher daemon, aud‐
ispd, that preforms remote logging to an aggregate logging server.
TIPS
If you are aggregating multiple machines, you should enable node infor‐
mation in the audit event stream. You can do this in one of two places.
If you want computer node names written to disk as well as sent in the
realtime event stream, edit the name_format option in
/etc/audit/auditd.conf. If you only want the node names in the realtime
event stream, then edit the name_format option in /etc/audisp/aud‐
ispd.conf. Do not enable both as it will put 2 node fields in the event
stream.
SIGNALS
SIGUSR1
Causes the audisp-remote program to write the value of some of
its internal flags to syslog. The suspend flag tells whether or
not logging has been suspended. The transport_ok flag tells
whether or not the connection to the remote server is healthy.
The queue_size tells how many records are enqueued to be sent to
the remote server.
SIGUSR2
Causes the audisp-remote program to resume logging if it were
suspended due to an error.
