Environment

Novell Nsure Audit 1.0.3
Novell eDirectory 8.7.3.2

Situation

During login, an extra logout event is recorded
When a user logs in, a logout event is generated prior to the login event in the audit database or logfile. It will appear that the user logged out immediately prior to logging in, generating 2 logout events for every 1 login event.

Resolution

This issue has been resolved in eDirectory version 8.7.3.7. Please upgrade to this version, or the latest version of eDirectory to resolve this issue.

Additional Information

This is a problem with the way eDirectory was handling logins, and was notifying auditds (eDir instrumentation) incorrectly of a logout at the time the user logged in.
