Further to this, I've just found out that auditd is logging it seems every transaction that Oracle makes. I have found squillions of entries in the log file for the oracle user "orpmpxgi". Is there any way to quickly stop auditd logging for a particular user?
Stopping that, may fix many of my problems. Cheers Brian Ross From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Brian Ross Sent: Tuesday, November 22, 2011 9:04 AM To: Subject: I'd like to turn auditd off but... I have a client who is still running RHEL3. Over the last 12 months the auditd process has become steadily more and more intrusive and causing problems. I have attempted to turn it off but whenever I do so, suddenly SSH logins stop working. At the moment the only way I have to manage the auditd process is to regularly delete the 2+GB of log files it creates every 4 hours. Can anybody tell me how to turn it off without affecting other things? Cheers Brian Ross Brian Ross Technical Consultant ASG Group Limited Level 1 / 267 St Georges Tce.
