[ossec-list] auto_ignore and alert_new_files option

[Devendra Agrawal]

Hi,

I want to know the syntax for auto_ignore and alert_new_files option. I
tried the following and restarted the agent services but it doesn't alert as
expected. I also have realtime check enabled.

<syscheck>
    <!-- Frequency that syscheck is executed - default to every 22 hours -->
    <frequency>79200</frequency>
    <!-- auto_ignore>no</auto_ignore-->
    <!-- alert_new_files>yes</alert_new_files -->
    <!-- Directories to check  (perform all possible verifications) -->
    <directories realtime="yes"
check_all="yes">/etc,/usr/bin,/usr/sbin</directories>
    <directories realtime="yes" check_all="yes">/bin,/sbin</directories>

   <!-- Files/directories to ignore -->
    <ignore>/etc/mtab</ignore>
    <ignore>/etc/mnttab</ignore>
    <ignore>/etc/hosts.deny</ignore>
    <ignore>/etc/mail/statistics</ignore>
    <ignore>/etc/random-seed</ignore>
    <ignore>/etc/adjtime</ignore>
    <ignore>/etc/httpd/logs</ignore>
    <ignore>/etc/utmpx</ignore>
    <ignore>/etc/wtmpx</ignore>
    <ignore>/etc/cups/certs</ignore>
    <ignore>/etc/dumpdates</ignore>
    <ignore>/etc/svc/volatile</ignore>
</syscheck>
