Subject: ausearch results differ with "-i" flag
Date: Tue, 16 Mar 2010 17:18:26 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1268777906.30348.202.camel@lcb> (raw)
I am doing an ausearch and noticed that with the "-i" flag the "comm="
field appears to lose the data.
The bad thing is that this appears inside the "msg=" string, and I feel
that it shouldn't be interpreting those values anyway.
I saw that the audit-viewer does parse out the "comm=" field correctly
when I look at the same event.
First the event without the "-i" flag:
----
time->Tue Mar 16 21:53:50 2010
node=jcdx type=USER_AVC msg=audit(1268776430.236:6808): user pid=2835

Same event appears to lose the "comm" field with the "-i" flag:
----
