HI folks,

wo we have any plans to ship auditd with some kind of data processing tool in the future? maybe as audispd plugin? just having a single log file with a bunch of data isn't really helpful, although we have tools like ausearch or aureport. customers often ask for something more visually. :)

Thanks,
Thorsten

That depends and what you mean.

That would be for realtime usage...we plan to do a few for analysis and protocol conversion/support.

Well, that is different from realtime. And yes we plan a GUI based reporting tool. But with the auparse library, it should be easy for anyone to write some apps.
