Hello,

I am very excited about the new process monitoring feature. However, I
looked at http://www.ossec.net/main/manual/manual-process-monitoring,
as well as the release notes for v. 2.3, but didn't see a list of
supported commands.

Are all commands supported (i.e., OSSEC will run whatever command is
put between the <command> tags), and I just need to write decoders/
rules for the commands I'm interested in? Or is there a specific
subset of commands OSSEC can run with this feature? Also, how complex
can the commands be? Can they be piped together (such as ps aux | grep
mysqld)? Or is it just the base command with arguments?

I also noticed in another post that Daniel Cid said the command output
is checked every 1-2 minutes depending on the flow of the logs. What
does that mean? Is there a timer, or is it tied to another check, or
what?

Thanks in advance!
