Configuring the DCE Audit Service

 

At HP DCE 1.4.2, the dce_config utility automatically enabled audit

 

filtering by setting DCEAUDITFILTERON before starting any DCE

 

servers; in addition, when you invoke the “Auditing” command from the

 

dce_config “Additional Server Configuration” menu, dce_config

 

specifies a set of default audit filters before starting auditd, the audit

 

daemon. You can use the dcecp audfilter command to delete or modify

 

these default filters, or to create new filters. See the -audfilter (1M) man

 

page for more information on how to do this.

 

If you want to enable auditing, you must explicitly start the audit

NOTE

 

daemon by selecting 9 (Auditing) from the dce_config “Additional

 

Server Configuration” menu. Not starting the audit daemon is

 

functionally equivalent to setting DCEAUDITOFF, effectively disabling

 

auditing.

 

If you want to disable auditing completely, set the DCEAUDITOFF

 

 

environment variable to 1 on each node where you intend to run a DCE

 

server before starting the cell’s servers.
