If its a security thing, you probably want an host based IDS.

My current favourite is

Samhain (http://la-samhna.de/samhain/)

It is a little tricky to set up initially -- you have to read all the 
documentation first and compile it specifically for your target (it is 
aggressively paranoid) -- but it can be configured to use multiple 
logging channels, it knows about ACls and SELinux contexts, and version 
3 uses inotify so resource impact is minimal.  Also can be configured to 
just look at your web root and ignore your uploads directory.

"All parts should go together without forcing.  You must remember that
the parts you are reassembling were disassembled by you.  Therefore,
if you can't get them together again, there must be a reason.  By all
means, do not use a hammer."  -- IBM maintenance manual, 1925
