.Dd February 5, 2006 .Dt AUDIT_USER 5 .Os .Sh NAME .Nm audit_user .Nd "specifies events to be audited for the given users" .Sh DESCRIPTION The .Nm file specifies which audit event classes are to be audited for the given users. If specified, these flags are combined with the system-wide audit flags in the
a audit_control file to determine which classes of events to audit for that user. These settings take effect when the user logs in.
p Each line maps a user name to a list of classes that should be audited and a list of classes that should not be audited. Entries are of the form:
p .Dl username:alwaysaudit:neveraudit
p In the format above, .Vt alwaysaudit is a set of event classes that are always audited, and .Vt neveraudit is a set of event classes that should not be audited. These sets can indicate the inclusion or exclusion of multiple classes, and whether to audit successful or failed events. See .Xr audit_control 5 for more information about audit flags.
p Example entries in this file are: d -literal -offset indent root:lo,ad:no jdoe:-fc,ad:+fw .Ed
p These settings would cause login/logout and administrative events that succeed on behalf of user root to be audited. No failure events are audited. For the user .Em jdoe , failed file creation events are audited, administrative events are audited, and successful file write events are never audited. .Sh FILES l -tag -width "/etc/security/audit_user" -compact t Pa /etc/security/audit_user .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr audit_control 5 .Sh AUTHORS This software was created by McAfee Research, the security research division of McAfee, Inc., under contract to Apple Computer Inc. Additional authors include Wayne Salamon, Robert Watson, and SPARTA Inc.
p The Basic Security Module (BSM) interface to audit records and audit event stream format were defined by Sun Microsystems. .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.
