No, I have not yet tested it (dealing with another ossec related issue at the moment). What problem are you coming across?

Subject: Re: [ossec-list] Alerts on log file modified, but
not if added to

I believe you're referring to this rule (# 592 in my case):

<rule id="592" level="8">
<if_sid>500</if_sid>
<match>^ossec: File size reduced</match>  <description>Log
file size reduced.</description>  <group>attacks,</group>  </rule>

I understand this correctly, I don't need to do anything
this rule is active by default!

Thanks,
Lars

PS. Of course this rule only provides limited protection
against tampering, since a smart hacker could easily make
sure the file is longer after he is done tampering with it.
