NAME

audit_user − per-user auditing data file

SYNOPSIS

/etc/security/audit_user

DESCRIPTION

audit_user is an access-restricted ASCII system file that stores per-user auditing preselection data.  Programs use the getauusernam(3) routines to access this information. 

The fields for each user entry are separated by colons.  Each user is separated from the next by a newline.  audit_user does not have general read permission. 

Each entry in the audit_user file has the form:

username:always-audit-flags:never-audit-flags

The fields are defined as follows:

username The user’s login name. 

always-audit-flags Flags specifying event classes to always audit. 

never-audit-flags Flags specifying event classes to never audit. 

EXAMPLES

Here is a sample audit_user file:

other:lo,ad:io,cl
fred:lo,ex,+fc,-fr,-fa:io,cl
ethyl:lo,ex,nt:io,cl
