The patches that do file system auditing were rejected and we were asked to try to combine the hooks with inotify. That was done. I did bring this up with the audit working group that we should look into this capability since it seems useful. So, to sum it up...it would need kernel work and that will take a while. There is a workaround that may help. If your samba share is on its own partition, then you can use the devmajor & minor fields in creating an audit rule. For example, suppose I wanted to do this for /tmp: [root@endeavor ~]# mount | grep tmp none on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw) /dev/hda8 on /tmp type ext3 (rw) [root@endeavor ~]# stat /dev/hda8 | grep type Device: dh/13d Inode: 919 Links: 1 Device type: 3,8 So the rule would be: auditctl -a exit,always -S open -F devmajor=3 -F devminor=8 To test: vi /tmp/gconfd-sgrubb/ ausearch -f gconfd-sgrubb time->Wed Nov 16 19:17:28 2005 type=PATH msg=audit(1132186648.942:633): name="/tmp/gconfd-sgrubb/" flags=103 inode=16419 dev=03:08 mode=040700 ouid=4325 ogid=4325 rdev=00:00 type=CWD msg=audit(1132186648.942:633): cwd="/root" type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1132186648.942:633): arch=40000003 syscall=5 success=yes exit=3 a0=92152b0 a1=18800 a2=3 a3=18800 items=1 pid=2937 auid=4325 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 comm="vim" exe="/usr/bin/vim" So this works. Hope this helps... -Steve __________________________________ Yahoo!
