/.secure/etc/auditfile

Hi,

I am using the default settings pertaining to the Audit Log Files.

/.secure/etc/auditfile1
/.secure/etc/auditfile2
AFS=1000KB
FSS=20%
Start sending warning message when log reaches 90%

Since these settings can prevent logs from increasing, why Unix Admin said the log file will fill up the file system?

Thanks,

Hi,

Have a read of this recent thread for some further info on this subject:

In a nutshell, unless you run audsys after the first file has switched to the second file you will fill up the file system with the second file.

regards,

Darren.
