Environment
Novell Audit 1.0.3 Secure Logging Server
Novell NetWare 6.5 Support Pack 5
Situation
After upgrading to NetWare 6.5 SP5 (OES SP2), the Secure
Logging Server debug screen no longer came up.
LENGINE.NLM is loaded and events are getting stored in
MySQL.
There is no Secure Logging Server screen showing the debug
output since upgrading my support pack.
Resolution
Go to SYS:SYSTEM\AUDITSVR.NCF and do the following:
Change the line that says "LOAD LENGINE" to:
LOAD LENGINE -d
By default, the Secure Logging Server (SLS) will not load
the debug screen. Only if you have a -d will the debug screen
load. The installation of the support pack may have replaced
SYS:SYSTEM\AUDITSVR.NCF. The default AUDITSVR.NCF file does
not contain a -d to have the debug screen show up.
In order to get the debug screen to show up, you will need to
unload the SLS and reload it. Please do the following steps
to unload and reload the SLS:
AUDITSTP.NCF (This stops the
instrumentation, such as AUDITNW.NLM and AUDITDS.NLM.)
UNLOAD LENGINE (This stops the
SLS)
AUDITSVR.NCF (This will
load the SLS. If the -d parameter is present in the NCF, the
debug screen will show up. If not, then please edit
SYS:SYSTEM\AUDITSVR.NCF.)
AUDITAGT.NCF (This will load the
instrumentation. This is the opposite of AUDITSTP.NCF.)
Additional Information
If you installed Novell Audit from CD media, your AUDITSVR.NCF
file may be marked as a read-only file. To change the file
from read-only, do the following:
1.) Map a drive to SYS:SYSTEM of the file server
running your SLS.
2.) Right click on auditsvr.ncf and select"Properties".
3.) At the bottom of the "Properties" page you will see
an "Attributes" section. If you see a check next to"Read-only", just uncheck it and click on the "OK" button to make
your changes.
4.) Optional: You can repeat steps 2 - 3 to
verify that the "Read-only" attribute has been unchecked.
