I use it here on a basically Testing box - I've just automated the daily upgrade process so that it re-runs aide immediately after the dist-upgrade. That way I get all changes to important bits of the filesystem since the last package upgrade every day in the mail. (It's partly a matter of policy to use this script rather than wedging things by hand.) #!/bin/sh PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin ; export PATH apt-get update chmod -R og=rX /var/lib/apt/lists /var/cache/apt/archives nice apt-get -u dist-upgrade echo "" echo "All done. Now running AIDE" echo "" cd /var/lib/aide && nice nice aide -i && mv aide.db.new aide.db && echo "Cool" echo "" ~Tim -- <http://spodzone.org.uk/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
