Sanity Check on Audit

[postmaster at ronno.nl]

Paul,

For "Anyone" it wouldn't be a problem, but a root user is allowed to do anything.

So a root is always be able to stop a process on the system.

Think of a solution to lock ssh access (sshd_config) for everyone, but you.

And even this is no 100% solution.

Ron de Kuijer

Subject: Sanity Check on Audit

I am configuring our auditing service to send logs through rsyslog.  While tinkering around, I was able to stop and start auditing from the command line as the root user. Is there a way to prevent anyone including root from stopping the audit service unless system is rebooted into single user mode?

Thanks,
Paul M. Whitney
