I'm a bit confused about using AID and where the checksum file is located -- and how it's actually used in Debian systems.
The debian installation of AIDE (Advanced intrusion detection environment) places the checksum file in /var/lib/aide/. Is there any use in running AIDE if the checksum file is writable? Seems like it should be on a non-writable media. Second, what media do people normally use? I have machines that only have a CD ROM. Do I need to burn a CDR with the database and always keep it mounted? The docs say that the aide binary and config file should also be on non-writable media. Is that common practice, too? And if so, then I suppose the cron.daily/aide file would need to be updated to point to the /cdrom for the config file. Or do people use AIDE with the standard install (database in /var/lib/aide/) and hope for the best? -- Bill Moseley [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
