- Update install notes to indicate /etc files are to be installed manually. - On systems without LOG_SECURITY, use LOG_AUTH. - Convert to autoconf/automake in order to move to a more portable (not BSD-specific) build infrastructure, and more easy conditional building of components. Currently, the primary feature loss is that automake does not have native support for manual symlinks. This will be addressed in a future OpenBSM release. - Add compat/queue.h, to be used on systems dated BSD queue macro libraries (as found on Linux). - Rename CHANGELOG to HISTORY, as our change log doesn't follow some of the existing conventions for a CHANGELOG. - Some private data structures moved from audit.h to audit_internal.h to prevent inappropriate use by applications and name space pollution. - Improved detection and use of endian macros using autoconf. - Avoid non-portable use of struct in6_addr, which is largely opaque. - Avoid leaking BSD kernel socket related token code to user space in bsm_token.c. - Teach System V IPC calls to look for Linux naming variations for certain struct ipc_perm fields. - Test for audit system calls, and if not present, don't build bsm_wrappers.c, bsm_notify.c, audit(8), and auditd(8), which rely on those system calls. - au_close() is not implemented on systems that don't have audit system calls, but au_close_buffer() is. - Work around missing BSDisms in bsm_wrapper.c. - Fix nested includes so including libbsm.h in an application on Linux picks up the necessary definitions.

OpenBSM 1.0 Introduction OpenBSM provides an open source implementation of Sun's BSM Audit API. Originally created under contract to Apple Computer by McAfee Research, this implementation is now maintained by volunteers and the generous contribution of several organizations. Coupled with a kernel audit implementation, OpenBSM can be used to maintain system audit streams, and is a foundation for an Audit-enabled system. Contents OpenBSM consists of several directories: bin/ Audit-related command line tools bsm/ System include files for BSM etc/ Sample /etc/security configuration files libbsm/ Implementation of BSM library interfaces and man pages man/ System call and configuration file man pages OpenBSM currently builds on FreeBSD and Darwin. With Makefile adjustment and minor tweaks, it should build without problems on a broad range of POSIX-like systems. Building OpenBSM is currently built using autoconf and automake, which should allow for building on a range of operating systems, including FreeBSD, Mac OS X, and Linux. Depending on the availability of audit facailities in the underlying operating system, some components that depend on kernel audit support are built conditionally. Typically, build will be performed using ./configure make To install, use: make install You may wish to specify that the OpenBSM components not be installed in the base system, rather in a specific directory. This may be done using the --prefix argument to configure. If installing to a specific directory, remember to update your library path so that running tools from that directory the correct libbsm is used: ./configure --prefix=/home/rwatson/openbsm make make install LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/rwatson/openbsm/libbsm ; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH You will need to manually propagate openbsm/etc/* into /etc on your system; this is not done automatically so as to avoid disrupting the current configuration. Currently, the locations of these files is not configurable. Credits The following organizations and individuals have contributed substantially to the development of OpenBSM: Apple Computer, Inc.
