vfs_full_audit 8 vfs_full_audit record Samba VFS operations in the system log vfs objects = full_audit DESCRIPTION This VFS module is part of the samba 7 suite. The vfs_full_audit VFS module records selected client operations to the system log using syslog 3. vfs_full_audit is able to record the complete set of Samba VFS operations: connect disconnect disk_free get_quota set_quota get_shadow_copy_data statvfs opendir readdir seekdir telldir rewinddir mkdir rmdir closedir open close read pread write pwrite lseek sendfile rename fsync stat fstat lstat unlink chmod fchmod chown fchown chdir getwd utime ftruncate lock kernel_flock linux_setlease getlock symlink readlink link mknod realpath fget_nt_acl get_nt_acl fset_nt_acl set_nt_acl chmod_acl fchmod_acl sys_acl_get_entry sys_acl_get_tag_type sys_acl_get_permset sys_acl_get_qualifier sys_acl_get_file sys_acl_get_fd sys_acl_clear_perms sys_acl_add_perm sys_acl_to_text sys_acl_init sys_acl_create_entry sys_acl_set_tag_type sys_acl_set_qualifier sys_acl_set_permset sys_acl_valid sys_acl_set_file sys_acl_set_fd sys_acl_delete_def_file sys_acl_get_perm sys_acl_free_text sys_acl_free_acl sys_acl_free_qualifier getxattr lgetxattr fgetxattr listxattr llistxattr flistxattr removexattr lremovexattr fremovexattr setxattr lsetxattr fsetxattr aio_read aio_write aio_return aio_cancel aio_error aio_fsync aio_suspend In addition to these operations, vfs_full_audit recognizes the special operation names "all" and "none ", which refer to all the VFS operations and none of the VFS operations respectively. vfs_full_audit records operations in fixed format consisting of fields separated by '|' characters. The format is: smbd_audit: PREFIX|OPERATION|RESULT|FILE The record fields are: PREFIX - the result of the full_audit:prefix string after variable substitutions OPERATION - the name of the VFS operation RESULT - whether the operation succeeded or failed FILE - the name of the file or directory the operation was performed on This module is stackable. OPTIONS vfs_full_audit:prefix = STRING Prepend audit messages with STRING. STRING is processed for standard substitution variables listed in smb.conf 5. The default prefix is "%u|%I". vfs_full_audit:success = LIST LIST is a list of VFS operations that should be recorded if they succeed. Operations are specified using the names listed above. vfs_full_audit:failure = LIST LIST is a list of VFS operations that should be recorded if they failed. Operations are specified using the names listed above. full_audit:facility = FACILITY Log messages to the named syslog 3 facility. full_audit:priority = PRIORITY Log messages with the named syslog 3 priority. EXAMPLES Log file and directory open operations on the [records] share using the LOCAL7 facility and ALERT priority, including the username and IP address: /data/records full_audit %u|%I open opendir all LOCAL7 ALERT VERSION This man page is correct for version 3.0.25 of the Samba suite. AUTHOR The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed.
