H2: Audit Logging
This overlay records changes on a given backend database to an LDIF log
file.
The Audit Logging overlay can be used to record all changes on a given backend database to a specified log file.
H3: Overview
If the need arises whereby changes need to be logged as standard LDIF, then the auditlog overlay {{B:slapo-auditlog (5)}}
can be used. Full examples are available in the man page {{B:slapo-auditlog (5)}}
H3: Audit Logging Configuration
If the directory is running vi {{F:slapd.d}}, then the following LDIF could be used to add the overlay to the overlay list
in {{B:cn=config}} and set what file the {{TERM:LDIF}} gets logged to (adjust to suit)
> dn: cn=module{0},cn=config
> changetype: modify
> add: olcModuleLoad
> olcModuleLoad: {2}auditlog.la
>
> dn: olcOverlay=auditlog,olcDatabase={1}hdb,cn=config
> changetype: add
> objectClass: olcOverlayConfig
> objectClass: olcAuditLogConfig
> olcOverlay: auditlog
> olcAuditlogFile: /tmp/auditlog.ldif
In this example for testing, we are logging changes to {{F:/tmp/auditlog.ldif}}
A typical {{TERM:LDIF}} file created by {{B:slapo-auditlog (5)}} would look like:
