I'm feeling dumb,.. on fedora 7 userland I do:

[root@opteron ~]# auditctl -D
No rules
[root@opteron ~]# auditctl -b 256
AUDIT_STATUS: enabled=0 flag=1 pid=0 rate_limit=0 backlog_limit=256 lost=0 backlog=0
[root@opteron ~]# auditctl -a exit,always -S sethostname
Error sending add rule request (Invalid argument)

man auditctl seems to suggest that is a valid command.
