Hi all!
Well, thanks very much to our friends in Alaska:
Kurt Carlson <sxkac_at_java.sois.alaska.edu> and
"Randy M. Hayman" <haymanr_at_icefog.sois.alaska.edu>
I will paste my original question and their answers below.
=================================My Question====================================
The auditors have made their annual pilgrimmage and would like to know the
following:
Is there a way to generate a report from the enhanced security database of
users and their parameter settings?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================Kurt's Answer======================================
What do you mean by parameter settings? If you mean environmental
variables, then "Yes" (sort of). Audit can be a very large consumer,
it should be configured very carefully... it took some trial and
error to enable a reasonable subset of options which wouldn't
flood our audit disk. The audit analysis tools is also a BIG
consumer of resources. All that being said, it can be useful...
we've used it several times to track down who (accidentally,
of course) files. If you would a copy of our authorization file
I can send it as well as some overview documentation of how to
analyze. kurt

I've written a couple of utilities to do things like this, perhaps they will be
near what you need. user_report and user_list are their names, and they can
be found as part of the zuausr utiilties at:
ftp://raven.alaska.edu/pub/randy/zuausr/
Current version is 1.15.

auditors ... ? :)
