I am setting up an OSSEC server and 10 clients. The server is CentOS6 with 
OSSEC installed via yum install atomic. The clients are CentOS 5 or 6, also 
installed with Atomic. I have done a bit of scraping here to find a wide 
mix of how etc/shared should be set up. This has obviously changed some 
since the newer clients look different from the older ones. This morning 
all the clients suddenly stopped pushing alerts, and I found the following 
site: http://www.eth0.us/ossec-ar%20conf  There does not seem to be much 
agreement on how these files (especially ar.conf) should be set, and 
various folks report very different permissions than I am seeing here. 
Changing ar.conf manually did appear to get the clients talking again, and 
the log errors about ar.conf went away. And the Atomic OSSEC may have bugs 
the latest tarball may not? Apparently there is a process somewhere that is 
supposed to police the file permissions on these files, but I'm not sure 
how an RPM install got them wrong in the first place.

ossec-hids-2.7-24.el6.art.x86_64
ossec-hids-server-2.7-24.el6.art.x86_64

Can anyone shed some light on this situation?
