I tried the following <syscheck> config on Linux centos 2.6.18.
<directories report_changes="yes" check_all="yes">/etc</directories>
Added a comment line a dummy file /etc/hosts.jb, the diff showed up under
queue/diff/local/etc/hosts.jb but did not show in alerts.log.
TODO: Who can trace the source code to debug this issue?
