DJ, Thanks for the above. The network_retry_time (et. al.) must be in the later version. I have: audispd-plugins-1.7.5-1.fc9.x86_64 ; there is no mention of that one in the man page and I get this message on startup: Sep 12 11:43:48 comms audisp-remote: Unknown keyword "network_retry_time" in line 14 of /etc/audisp/audisp-remote.conf Sep 12 11:43:48 comms auditd[4411]: Init complete, auditd 1.7.5 listening for events (startup state enable) Sep 12 11:43:48 comms audispd: plugin /sbin/audisp-remote terminated unexpectedly So I Removed the timing parameters. Now I get this: ... Sep 12 11:46:20 comms audisp-remote: lost/losing sync, bad magic number Sep 12 11:46:20 comms audisp-remote: lost/losing sync, bad magic number ... I do not see any errors in the message log on the collector. Any ideas? Thx again!
