AUREPORT:(8)            System Administration Utilities           AUREPORT:(8)

NAME
       aureport - a tool that produces summary reports of audit daemon logs

SYNOPSIS
       aureport [options]

DESCRIPTION
       aureport  is  a  tool that produces summary reports of the audit system
       logs. The aureport utility can also take input from stdin  as  long  as
       the  input  is the raw log data. The reports have a column label at the
       top to help with interpretation of the various fields. Except  for  the
       main  summary  report, all reports have the audit event number. You can
       subsequently lookup the full event with ausearch -a event  number.  You
       may  need  to  specify start & stop times if you get multiple hits. The
       reports produced by aureport can be used as building  blocks  for  more
       complicated analysis.

OPTIONS
       -au, --auth
              Report about authentication attempts

       -a, --avc
              Report about avc messages

       -c, --config
              Report about config changes

       -cr, --crypto
              Report about crypto events

       -e, --event
              Report about events

       -f, --file
              Report about files

       --failed
              Only  select  failed  events  for processing in the reports. The
              default is both success and failed events.

       -h, --host
              Report about hosts

       --help Print brief command summary

       -i, --interpret
              Interpret  numeric  entities into text. For example, uid is con-
              verted to account name. The conversion is done using the current
              resources  of  the machine where the search is being run. If you
              have renamed the accounts, or don't have the  same  accounts  on
              your machine, you could get misleading results.

       -if, --input file
              Use the given file instead of the logs. This is to aid  analysis
              where  the  logs have been moved to another machine or only part
              of a log was saved.

       --input-logs
              Use the log file location from auditd.conf as input  for  analy-
              sis. This is needed if you are using aureport from a cron job.

       -k, --key
              Report about audit rule keys

       -l, --login
              Report about logins

       -m, --mods
              Report about account modifications

       -ma, --mac
              Report about Mandatory Access Control (MAC) events

       -n, --anomaly
              Report about anomaly events. These events include NIC going into
              promiscuous mode and programs segfaulting.

       --node node-name
              Only select events originating from node name  string  for  pro-
              cessing  in  the  reports.  The default is to include all nodes.
              Multiple nodes are allowed.

       -p, --pid
              Report about processes

       -r, --response
              Report about responses to anomaly events

       -s, --syscall
              Report about syscalls

       --success
              Only select successful events for processing in the reports. The
              default is both success and failed events.

       --summary
              Run the summary report that gives a total of the elements of the
              main report. Not all reports have a summary.

       -t, --log
              This option will output a report of the start and end times  for
              each log.

       --tty  Report about tty keystrokes

       -te, --end [end-date] [end-time]
              Search  for events with time stamps equal to or before the given
              end time. The format of end time depends on your locale. If  the
              date  is  omitted, today is assumed. If the time is omitted, now
              is assumed. Use 24 hour clock time rather than AM or PM to spec-
              ify  time.  An  example  date  using  the  en_US.utf8  locale is
              09/03/2009. An example of time  is  18:00:00.  The  date  format
              accepted is influenced by the LC_TIME environmental variable.

              You  may  also  use  the  word:  now,  recent, today, yesterday,
              this-week, week-ago, this-month, this-year. Today means starting
              now.  Recent is 10 minutes ago. Yesterday is 1 second after mid-
              night the previous day. This-week means starting 1 second  after
              midnight  on  day  0  of the week determined by your locale (see
              localtime). This-month means 1 second after midnight on day 1 of
              the  month.  This-year  means the 1 second after midnight on the
              first day of the first month.

       -tm, --terminal
              Report about terminals

       -ts, --start [start-date] [start-time]
              Search for events with time stamps equal to or after  the  given
              end  time. The format of end time depends on your locale. If the
              date is omitted, today is assumed. If the time is omitted,  mid-
              night is assumed. Use 24 hour clock time rather than AM or PM to
              specify time. An example date using  the  en_US.utf8  locale  is
              09/03/2009.  An  example  of  time  is 18:00:00. The date format
              accepted is influenced by the LC_TIME environmental variable.

              You may also  use  the  word:  now,  recent,  today,  yesterday,
              this-week, this-month, this-year. Today means starting at 1 sec-
              ond after midnight. Recent is 10 minutes  ago.  Yesterday  is  1
              second after midnight the previous day. This-week means starting
              1 second after midnight on day 0 of the week determined by  your
              locale (see localtime). This-month means 1 second after midnight
              on day 1 of the month. This-year means the 1 second  after  mid-
              night on the first day of the first month.
