Disabled options will do the same, but for "ossec.conf.d/disabled" +directory. All "*.conf" files from the "ossec.conf.d" directory will be merged +into "ossec.conf" in alphabetic order. If you are not satisfied with the +generated configuration, you can disable the corresponding option and use files +from "ossec.conf.d/disabled" directory as samples. + +The "pushed" sections (*_P options) relate to configuration pushed to agents +using "agent.conf". The generated configuration blocks will be placed in +"agent.conf.d" and "agent.conf.d/disabled" directories. +Note that the agent needs to enable proper profile to benefit from "agent.conf" +configuration pushed by the server. This also means that profiles not enabled +on the agent are ignored. This is why all "pushed" options are enabled by +default. The port currently contains configuration templates for the following +agent systems: + + - FreeBSD + - Debian Linux + +Consider contributing to the port by contacting the maintainer and providing +configuration templates for other operating systems runnig OSSEC agents. + +Files generated by the port will be overwritten during port upgrades so any +additional configuration should be put in separate files. + +File Integrity Checking: + + NOAUTO_SC: + OSSEC by default will ignore files that change too often (after the third + change). This option disables this feature. Files that change too often + as a result of correct system operation should better be added to ignore + list manually. + +Command Output Monitoring: + + Adds additional commands, the output of which can be monitored. To actually + send alerts about the changing output, the proper rules need to be configured + as well (see CMDOUT_R option). + These commands can be tweaked in "command.conf". + +Active Response Firewall: + + Creates "firewall-drop.sh" hardlink to one of the scripts shipped with OSSEC. + This option is only meaningful if this OSSEC instance will be the target of + "firewall-drop" active response. |
