One further refinement to what I said yesterday about remote logging. You 
probably want to set the local_port value to something < 1024 in the remote 
configuration files. Then in the aggregating auditd, set the tcp_client_ports to 
the same thing.

This is a security feature to prevent random user space apps from trying audit 
log injection attacks. For experimenting or casual use you don't need to set 
these up, but for production use you must.

If you use kerberos authentication, then you have even more protection. But 
setting up kerberos for this is a little more than I want to explain.
