I downloaded each of the audit version from 1.1.4 - 1.2.1 and compiled
from the tar balls...the source rpms kept bombing out on dependencies.
As of 1.2.1 with the SLED 10 distro, I was able to get it to tell me
permission denied when the syscall attempted an open
on /var/log/messages from an unpriviledged user.

Thanks everyone...
