PRAUDIT(1) FreeBSD General Commands Manual PRAUDIT(1) NAME praudit - print the contents of audit trail files SYNOPSIS praudit [-lnpx] [-r | -s] [-d del] [file ...] DESCRIPTION The praudit utility prints the contents of the audit trail files to the standard output in human-readable form. If no file argument is specified, the standard input is used by default. The options are as follows: -d del Specifies the delimiter. The default delimiter is the comma. -l Prints the entire record on the same line. If this option is not specified, every token is displayed on a different line. -n Do not convert user and group IDs to their names but leave in their numeric forms. -p Specify this option if input to praudit is piped from the tail(1) utility. This causes praudit to sync to the start of the next record. -r Prints the records in their raw, numeric form. This option is exclusive from -s. -s Prints the tokens in their short form. Short text representations for record and event type are displayed. This option is exclusive from -r. -x Print audit records in the XML output format. If the raw or short forms are not specified, the default is to print the tokens in their long form. Events are displayed as per their descriptions given in /etc/security/audit_event; UIDs and GIDs are expanded to their names; dates and times are displayed in human-readable format. EXIT STATUS The praudit utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs. FILES /etc/security/audit_class Descriptions of audit event classes. /etc/security/audit_event Descriptions of audit events.
