The initial namespace. If we want the executing task's current namespace we should probably change audit_filter_user_rules(). > Which is correct?

I'm sorry, I tend to laugh when I hear the term "correct" during an audit discussion ;) Steve, Richard, Eric - what do you guys want: initial or current namespace? > I won't pretend this is easy to solve. > > Steve et al.

I'm personally not super excited about rules disappearing automatically and I also believe that it should be possible to remove a rule regardless (not being able to remove a PID filtering rule due to the status of the associated task is silly). -- paul moore security and virtualization @ redhat -- Linux-audit mailing list Linux-audit@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-audit
