Are there any issues with a RHEL7 auditd collecting events from RHEL6
submitters?
How about any interpretation issues, on the RHEL7 side, of these events?
Thanks in advance,
LCB

To my knowlege, there are no issues. Its pretty much the same software on both
systems.

Just the usual user name/group interpretation issue. But if you spot anything
else, let me know. With the ausearch-test application, I have been working to
make interpretation and searching universally correct. This is only achieved
with the latest audit packages.
As an aside, I have found that we also need an audit validation suite. What
this would do is have someone start a system, login, logout, log back in, shut
down the system, reboot and run the test to see if all necessary events have
been generated, no duplicates, no spurious events, and fields are correct.

Since people have asked about this off list...
I have uploaded a state diagram of how the audit system is supposed to work to
my people page: http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/audit/
This only includes the system events that give the user session context. The
whole user session can do anything based on the local rules/selinux
settings/file permissions. The point is to define the boundaries that can be
used to constrain the possible user events.
I'll upload the suite in its current form a bit later. It is a work in
progress...but identifies systemd as not being consistent in sending events.
Not to mention lightdm not being audit aware at all...

I re-organized the project page and put a place at the bottom for test suites.
The 0.1 version can now be found at:
http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/audit/audit-validation-0.1.tar.gz
It is a work in progress. It has a long way to go. It needs help. Especially
in correcting apps.
