It is configured using the audit_filter configuration file. The source can either be a pipe or a file.

p The options are as follows: l -tag -width indent t Fl c Ar conffile Specify an alternative configuration file. t Fl d Starts the daemon in debug mode \[em] it will not daemonize. t Fl p Ar pipefile Specify a pipe as an alternative source of audit event records. Default is

a /dev/auditpipe . t Fl t Ar trailfile Specify a file as an alternative source of audit event records. .El .Sh FILES l -tag -width ".Pa /etc/security/audit_filterd" -compact t Pa /etc/security/audit_filterd Default configuration file for .Nm . t Pa /dev/auditpipe Default audit record source for .Nm . .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr audit 8 , .Xr auditd 8 .Sh HISTORY The OpenBSM implementation was created by McAfee Research, the security division of McAfee Inc., under contract to Apple Computer Inc. in 2004. It was subsequently adopted by the TrustedBSD Project as the foundation for the OpenBSM distribution. .Sh AUTHORS The .Nm daemon and audit filter APIs were created by .An Robert Watson . .Sh BUGS .Nm is experimental, and should not be relied on in production.
