configuration keyword per line, an equal sign, and then followed by appropriate configuration information. The keywords recognized are: log_file, log_format, log_group, priority_boost, flush, freq, num_logs , disp_qos , dispatcher, name_format , name, max_log_file, max_log_file_action, space_left, action_mail_acct, space_left_action, failed to start security auditing service. admin_space_left, admin_space_left_action, disk_full_action, disk_error_action, tcp_listen_port, tcp_listen_queue, tcp_max_per_addr, use_libwrap, tcp_client_ports, tcp_client_max_idle, enable_krb5, krb5_principal, and krb5_key_file. These keywords are described below. log_file This keyword specifies the full path name to the log file where audit records will be stored. It must be a regular file. log_format The log format describes how the information should be stored on disk. There are 2 options: raw and nolog. If https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=204857 set to RAW, the audit records will be stored in a format exactly as the kernel sends it. If this option is set to NOLOG then all audit information is discarded instead of writing to disk. This mode does not affect data sent to the audit event dispatcher. log_group This keyword specifies the group that is applied to the log file's permissions. The default is http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/precise/man5/auditd.conf.5.html root. The group name can be either numeric or spelled out. priority_boost This is a non-negative number that tells the audit daemon how much of a priority boost it should take. The default is 4. No change is 0. flush Valid values are none, incremental, data, and sync. If set to none, no special effort is made to flush the audit records to disk. If set to incremental, Then the freq parameter is used to determine how often an explicit flush to disk is issued. The data parameter tells the audit damon to keep the data portion of the disk file sync'd at all times. The sync option tells the audit daemon to keep both the data and meta-data fully sync'd with every write to disk. freq This is a non-negative number that tells the audit damon how many records to write before issuing an explicit flush to disk command. this value is only valid when the flush keyword is set to incremental. num_logs This keyword specifies the number of log files to keep if rotate is given as the max_log_file_action. If the number is < 2, logs are not rotated. This numbe
