Hi all,

My company has been using OSSEC to monitor logs quite happily for some 
time. I am trying to get FIM up and running using OSSEC. The system is a 
Redhat linux server running OSSEC as the server, which connects out to 
quite a number of Agents installed on Windows.

We keep all our production material in a particular folder in a particular 
drive. Let's call it E:/companyfolder/

I've added the following to the ossec.conf on the agent:

<directories check_all="yes" realtime="yes" 
report_changes="yes">E:\companyfolder/websites/web</directories>

And added the following to local_rules.xml on the server:

<rule id="554" level="7" overwrite="yes">
  <category>ossec</category>
  <decoded_as>syscheck_new_entry</decoded_as>
  <description>File added to the system.</description>
  <group>syscheck,</group>
</rule>

Having restarted both I then go and add an arbitrary file, like 
"abcdefg.txt", and check the syslog. Repeating the test many times, 
occasionally something like this pops up:

2016-06-03 12:06:49     Local0.Warning  192.168.172.6   Jun  3 12:06:47 DB2 
ossec: Alert Level: 7; Rule: 554 - File added to the system.; Location: 
(app5) 192.168.172.105->syscheck; New file 
'E:\companyfolder/websites/web/abcdefgh.txt' added to the file system.

That would be one time in 20 tests however, and certainly not realtime.

What am I doing wrong?
