Its almost ready to be contributed. What should the sysctl ndoes be named? These really implement similar functionality to net.inet.{tcp|udp}.log_in_vain, but obviously don't belong under net. What about something like "kern.audit.*"? There are probably several other areas that we could increase the kernel's verbosity, and put the sysctls under there. Comments? Suggestions? - Steve -- C.
