Note that this rule will create a SYSCALL event. To find it later, you would 
run:

ausearch --start today -k user_modification

This event is a user space originating event and it depends on shadow-utils 
being correctly patched to generate the events specified in:

If it doesn't, you should file a bug report against the shadow-utils package of 
your distribution so that they know about the issue.
