Hi,

I have asked the guys around here: within this project they decided to go for 
snoopy due to much easier installation (add a library to ld_preload).
They require to have all exec's logged (either from an application or a user).

I do not believe that something is wrong with auditd.
it is only this specific project which prefers snoopy over auditd.

Best,
Martin
