PRAUDIT(1M)PRAUDIT(1M)NAMEpraudit - print contents of an audit trail file
SYNOPSISpraudit [-lrsx] [-ddel] [filename]...
DESCRIPTIONpraudit reads the listed filenames (or standard input, if no filename
is specified) and interprets the data as audit trail records as defined
in audit.log(4). By default, times, user and group IDs (UIDs and GIDs,
respectively) are converted to their ASCII representation. Record type
and event fields are converted to their ASCII representation. A maximum
of 100 audit files can be specified on the command line.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-ddel
Use del as the field delimiter instead of the default delimiter,
which is the comma. If del has special meaning for the shell, it
must be quoted. The maximum size of a delimiter is three charac‐
ters. The delimiter is not meaningful and is not used when the -x
option is specified.
-l
Print one line per record.
-r
Print records in their raw form. Times, UIDs, GIDs, record types,
and events are displayed as integers. This option is useful when
naming services are offline. The -r option and the -s option are
exclusive. If both are used, a format usage error message is out‐
put.
-s
Display records in their short form. Numeric fields' ASCII equiva‐
lents are looked up by means of the sources specified in the
/etc/nsswitch.conf file (see nsswitch.conf(4)). All numeric fields
are converted to ASCII and then displayed. The short ASCII repre‐
sentations for the record type and event fields are used. This
option and the -r option are exclusive. If both are used, a format
usage error message is output.
-x
Print records in XML form. Tags are included in the output to iden‐
tify tokens and fields within tokens. Output begins with a valid
XML prolog, which includes identification of the DTD which can be
used to parse the XML.
