NAME
aureport - a tool that produces summary reports of audit daemon logs
SYNOPSIS
aureport [ options ]
DESCRIPTION
aureport is a tool that produces summary reports of the audit system
logs. The reports have a column label at the top to help with inter-
pretation of the various fields. Except for the main summary report
(-r), all reports have the audit event number. You can subsequently
lookup the full event with ausearch -a . You may need to
specify start & stop times if you get multiple hits. The reports pro-
duced by aureport can be used as building blocks for more complicated
analysis.
OPTIONS
-a Report about avc messages
-c Report about config changes
-e Report about events
-f Report about files
--failed
Only select failed events for processing in the reports. The
default is both success and failed events.
-h Report about hosts
-i Interpret numeric entities into text. For example, uid is
converted to account name. The conversion is done using the
current resources of the machine where the search is being
run. If you have renamed the accounts, or don't have the same
accounts on your machine, you could get misleading results.
-if <file name>
Use the given file instead if the logs. This is to aid analysis
where the logs have been moved to another machine or only part
of a log was saved.
-l Report about logins
-m Report about account modifications
-p Report about processes
-r This option will output the main summary report.
-s Report about syscalls
--success
Only select successful events for processing in the reports.
The default is both success and failed events.
--summary
Run the summary report that gives a total of the elements of
the main report. Not all reports have a summary.
-t This option will output a report of the start and end times for
each log.
-te [end date] [end time]
Search for events with time stamps equal to or before the given
end time. The format of end time depends on your locale. If the
date is omitted, today is assumed. If the time is omitted, now
is assumed. Use 24 hour clock time rather than AM or PM to
specify time. An example date is 10/24/05. An example of time
is 18:00:00.
-tm Report about terminals
-ts [start date] [start time]
Search for events with time stamps equal to or after the given
end time. The format of end time depends on your locale. If the
date is omitted, today is assumed. If the time is omitted, mid-
night is assumed. Use 24 hour clock time rather than AM or PM
to specify time. An example date is 10/24/05. An example of
time is 18:00:00.
-u Report about users
-v Print the version and exit
-w Report about watched files
-x Report about executables
