Change the word possible to always and restart your auditd daemon.

i.e.
-a exit,always -S chmod -F success=0 -F success!=0
-a exit,always -S fchmod -F success=0 -F success!=0

Can someone tell me what is the correct syntax for successfully or failing
to modify a file using the chmod command? I have :

- -a exit,possible -S chmod -F success=0 -F success!=0
- -a exit,possible -S fchmod -F success=0 -F success!=0

But I am not able to audit the event. As a regular user I try to change the
permissions of /etc/shadow. The action fails (as expected) but does not get
audited.

Any suggestions is greatly appreciated.
