[ISSForum] Site Protector - Changes_to_important_files on Solaris

Subject: [ISSForum] Site Protector - Changes_to_important_files on Solaris
Date: Wed, 8 Sep 2004 09:17:17 +0200
Hi All!

We have recently started getting a couple of new incidents that I cannot 
explain. They are appearing on two Solaris 9.2 machines that are in a 3.0 
cluster, running Server Sensor 7.0 XPU 22.29. 

The first event is Changes_to_important_files and the file name is always 
something liek this: /dev/rdsk/dev/rdsk/c2t41d0s2. First, the fact that 
"/dev/rdsk/" is doubled bothers me. Second, why would this device be changing? 
From the event details, I cannot determine what was changed. 

The next event is Failed_change_of_important_files with file names like 
/dev/dsk/c2t42d0. Here the directory is not doubled, but again I cannot figure 
why someone/something was trying to change this device. 

We have not changed anything in the auditing, but is it possible that the 
default settings have been changed and more is being audited?

Any info would be greatly appreaciated.

Regards,

James Mohr
