Subject: [PATCH] fix a bug that option '-i' cannot be used
Date: Sat, 19 Jul 2008 11:42:01 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <48816289.4060500@cn.fujitsu.com> (raw)

Hello Steve,
CC Miloslav,

  Option '-i' cannot be used, because the check about option '-R'
in main() is wrong.
  When check option '-R', we should consider whether option '-i'
is specified.

  Using option '-i' with '-R' should ignore errors when reading
rules from file rather than reporting error message
"Error - nested rule files not supported".

  This is a patch to fix the bug of audit-1.7.4.
