https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=185034 Christian Brueffer <brueffer@FreeBSD.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Resolution|--- |Works As Intended CC| |brueffer@FreeBSD.org Status|In Progress |Closed Assignee|freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org |brueffer@FreeBSD.org --- Comment #1 from Christian Brueffer <brueffer@FreeBSD.org> --- Hi Radim, the information which flags to audit for a user are not managed by auditd, hence loading the file during "audit -s" would be useless. The audit_user file is only read when a user logs in and consequently a new audit context for that login session is created (e.g., see usr.bin/login/login_audit.c). In that case the user's entry is read from audit_user, and combined with the "always audit" flags specified in the flags parameter in /etc/audit_control into the user's audit mask. This mask is part of the audit context inherited by every process forked from that initial login process. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
