-au
, --auth
Report about authentication attempts
-a
, --avc
Report about avc messages
--comm
Report about commands run
-c
, --config
Report about config changes
-cr
, --crypto
Report about crypto events
--debug
Write malformed events that are skipped to stderr.
--eoe-timeout
seconds
Set the end of event parsing timeout. See
end_of_event_timeout
in auditd.conf(5) for details. Note
that setting this value will override any configured value
found in /etc/auditd/auditd.conf.
-e
, --event
Report about events
--escape
option
This option determines if the output is escaped to make
the content safer for certain uses. The options are raw ,
tty , shell , and shell_quote. Each mode includes the
characters of the preceding mode and escapes more
characters. That is to say shell includes all characters
escaped by tty and adds more. tty is the default.
-f
, --file
Report about files and af_unix sockets
--failed
Only select failed events for processing in the reports.
The default is both success and failed events.
-h
, --host
Report about hosts
--help
Print brief command summary
-i
, --interpret
Interpret numeric entities into text. For example, uid
is converted to account name. The conversion is done using
the current resources of the machine where the search is
being run. If you have renamed the accounts, or don't have
the same accounts on your machine, you could get
misleading results.
-if
, --input
file | directory
Use the given file or directory instead of the logs. This
is to aid analysis where the logs have been moved to
another machine or only part of a log was saved. The path
length is limited to 4064 bytes.
--input-logs
Use the log file location from auditd.conf as input for
analysis. This is needed if you are using aureport from a
cron job.
--integrity

-k
, --key
Report about audit rule keys
-l
, --login
Report about logins
-m
, --mods

-n
, --anomaly
Report about anomaly events. These events include NIC
going into promiscuous mode and programs segfaulting.
--node
node-name
Only select events originating from node name string for
processing in the reports. The default is to include all
nodes. Multiple nodes are allowed.
-nc
, --no-config
Do not include the CONFIG_CHANGE event. This is
particularly useful for the key report because audit rules
have key labels in many cases. Using this option gets rid
of these false positives.
-p
, --pid
Report about processes
-r
, --response
Report about responses to anomaly events
-s
, --syscall
Report about syscalls
--success
Only select successful events for processing in the
reports. The default is both success and failed events.

of the main report. Not all reports have a summary.
-t
, --log
This option will output a report of the start and end
times for each log.
--tty
Report about tty keystrokes
-te
, --end
[end-date] [end-time]
Search for events with time stamps equal to or before the
given end time. The format of end time depends on your
locale. If the date is omitted, today
is assumed. If the
time is omitted, now
is assumed. Use 24 hour clock time
rather than AM or PM to specify time. An example date
using the en_US.utf8 locale is 09/03/2009. An example of
time is 18:00:00. The date format accepted is influenced
by the LC_TIME environmental variable.
