Does OSSEC give precedence to the most specific or least specific entry in
syschecks? For example if I set /var to check all and /var/log to check
only ownership, will OSSEC check all on /var/log or will the more specific
check take precedence.

In Samhain, only the more specific check would apply, but my sense is that
the opposite is true with OSSEC. I've also found no apparent way to set the
level of recursion so I could limit the /var 'check all' to only the top
level.

If what I suspect is true, is there any other way to apply different checks
to nested directories than what's applied at the top level?
