-1 means that the command was run by something that was not initiated by a login. IOW, probably initscripts.


I can fix the violation, but before I do I thought I saw something a while
back about setting a parameter or defining a variable on power-up so that
one didn't get the -1 for something that came up in the wrong order.

There is nothing that fixes that. This is just a statement of fact. The error originated from a non-login path. What you might be remembering is that you should put a audit=1 in the boot params of the kernel. This is so that you don't have any unauditable processes.
