Care should be taken to configure proper permissions on this file .Li ( eg. 0600 ) . .Pp Every line starting with # is treated as comment and ignored. .Sh CONFIGURATION FILE SYNTAX General syntax of the .Nm file is following: .Bd -literal -offset ## Global section. # Our name. # The default is first part of the hostname. name "" # Connection timeout. # The default is 5. timeout # Path to pidfile. # The default is "/var/run/auditdistd.pid". pidfile "" sender { ## Sender section. # Source address for connections. # Optional. source "" # Directory with audit trail files managed by auditdistd. # The default is /var/audit/dist. directory "" .\" .\" # Checksum algorithm for data send over the wire. .\" # The default is none. .\" checksum "" .\" .\" # Compression algorithm for data send over the wire. .\" # The default is none. .\" compression "" # Configuration for the target system we want to send audit trail # files to. host "" { # Source address for connections. # Optional. source "" # Address of auditdistd receiver. # No default.

If parameter is not defined in the particular section, it will be inherited from the parent section if possible. For example, if the .Ic source parameter is not defined in the .Ic host section, it will be inherited from the .Ic sender section. In case the .Ic global section does not define the .Ic source parameter at all, the default value will be used. .Sh CONFIGURATION FILE DESCRIPTION The following statements are available: .Bl -tag -width ".Ic xxxx" .It Ic name Aq name .Pp This host's name. It is send to the receiver, so it can properly recognize us if there are more than one sender coming from the same IP address. .It Ic timeout Aq seconds .Pp Connection timeout in seconds. The default value is .Va 5 . .It Ic pidfile Aq path .Pp File in which to store the process ID of the main .Xr auditdistd 8 process. .Pp The default value is .Pa /var/run/auditdistd.pid . .It Ic source Aq addr .Pp Local address to bind to before connecting to the remote .Nm auditdistd daemon. Format is the same as for the .Ic listen statement. .It Ic directory Aq path .Pp Directory where to look for audit trail files in case of sender mode or directory where to store received audit trail files. The provided path has to be an absolute path. The only exception is when directory is provided in the .Ic receiver section, then path provided in the .Ic host subsections can be relative to the directory in the .Ic receiver section. The default value is .Pa /var/audit/dist for the entire .Ic sender section, .Pa /var/audit/remote for the non-host .Ic receiver section and .Pa /var/audit/remote/ for the .Ic host subsections in the .Ic receiver section where .Aq name is host's name. .\".It Ic checksum Aq algorithm .\".Pp .\"Checksum algorithm should be one of the following: .\".Bl -tag -width ".Ic sha256" .\".It Ic none .\"No checksum will be calculated for the data being send over the network. .\"This is the default setting. .\".It Ic crc32 .\"CRC32 checksum will be calculated. .\".It Ic sha256 .\"SHA256 checksum will be calculated. .\".El .\".It Ic compression Aq algorithm .\".Pp .\"Compression algorithm should be one of the following: .\".Bl -tag -width ".Ic none" .\".It Ic none .\"Data send over the network will not be compressed. .\"This is the default setting. .\".It Ic lzf .\"The .\".Nm LZF .\"algorithm by .\".An Marc Alexander Lehmann .\"will be used to compress the data send over the network. .\".Nm LZF .\"is very fast, general purpose compression algorithm. .\".El .It Ic remote Aq addr .Pp Address of the remote .Nm auditdistd daemon. Format is the same as for the .Ic listen statement. When operating in the .Ic sender mode this address will be used to connect to the .Ic receiver . When operating in the .Ic receiver mode only connections from this address will be accepted. .It Ic listen Aq addr .Pp Address to listen on in form of: .Bd -literal -offset indent protocol://protocol-specific-address .Ed .Pp Each of the following examples defines the same listen address: .Bd -literal -offset indent 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0:7878 tcp://0.0.0.0 tcp://0.0.0.0:7878 tcp4://0.0.0.0 tcp4://0.0.0.0:7878 .Ed .Pp Multiple listen addresses can be specified. By default .Nm auditdistd listens on .Pa tcp4://0.0.0.0:7878 and .Pa tcp6://[::]:7878 if kernel supports IPv4 and IPv6 respectively. .It Ic keyfile Aq path .Pp Path to a file that contains private key for TLS communication. .It Ic certfile Aq path .Pp Path to a file that contains certificate for TLS communication. .It Ic fingerprint Aq algo=hash .Pp Finger print of the receiver's public key. Currently only SHA256 algorithm is supported. Certificate public key's fingerprint ready to be pasted into auditdistd configuration file can be obtained by running: .Bd -literal -offset # openssl x509 -in /etc/security/auditdistd.cert.pem -noout -fingerprint -sha256 | awk -F '[ =]' '{printf("%s=%s\\n", $1, $3)}' .Ed .It Ic password Aq password .Pp Password used to authenticate the sender in front of the receiver. .El .Sh FILES .Bl -tag -width ".Pa /etc/security/auditdistd.conf" -compact .It Pa /etc/security/auditdistd.conf The default .Nm auditdistd configuration file. .El .Sh EXAMPLES The example configuration files can look as follows. .Pp Web server: .Bd -literal -offset indent sender { host backup { remote 10.0.0.4 } } .Ed .Pp Audit backup server: .Bd -literal -offset indent receiver { host webserv { remote 10.0.0.1 } host mailserv { remote 10.0.0.2 } host dnsserv { remote 10.0.0.3 } } .Ed .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr audit 4 , .Xr auditdistd 8 . .Sh AUTHORS The .Nm auditdistd was developed by .An Pawel Jakub Dawidek Aq pawel@dawidek.net under sponsorship of the FreeBSD Foundation.
