halvorsI need a hids for my ubuntu servers, seems aide is pretty minimalistic as a hids, but maybe in combination with chkrootkit and another utility that looks at logs?14:26
halvorsAny ideas on a utility for that?14:26
sdezielhalvors: there is auditd that you might want to look into14:28
sdezielfor log monitoring I use logcheck but be ready to write a lot of regexes to silence all the unimportant noise you'll get14:28
halvorssdeziel: thanks14:45
halvorsauditd vs logcheck what is the difference between them?15:03
sdezielthey are very different, logcheck is going over your logs and removing the noise (what matches regexes of unimportant log entries)15:04
sdeziellogcheck then extract the "signal" which is everything that was not silenced by the regexes of unimportant stuff15:04
sdezielthat signal can be noisy because the base ruleset shipped by logcheck is not very up to date which is why you will need to write a lot of regexes to build a ruleset that matches your environment15:05
sdezielonce done, you'll get a good signal from logcheck15:06
halvorswhat does auditd do compared to logcheck then? is it not the same?15:06
sdeziellogcheck runs on reboots and every hours and send you an email with the important logs that happened since the last notification15:07
sdezielauditd is like a blackbox recorder of a plane15:07
sdezielit can be configured to record/log every syscal ran, their args, who ran them, etc15:08
sdezielthis allows you to track most actions taking place on your machine15:08
halvorsi see, so auditd is more to investigate a breach?15:08
sdezielyou could use it for that or also to catch anomalies15:09
sdeziel(logcheck is also good to catch anomalies but only when they show up in logs it checks..)15:09
halvorssdeziel: thanks, i have another question as well, is there a good solution for active response rules, or is this a job for fail2ban?15:12
halvorsAre there other solutions like fail2ban that is better?15:12
sdezielhalvors: suricata and snort can run in IPS mode where they typically inject firewall rules whenever a condition matches15:13
halvorssdeziel: On the host itself not the firewall?15:14
sdezielhalvors: the host itself has firewalling capabilities15:14
halvorsyes15:14
sdeziela bit like what fail2ban does15:15
halvorsthanks :) fail2ban is more to make it harder to gain access in the first place?15:15
sdezielhalvors: fail2ban can protect many services, which one do you want to protect in your case?15:16
halvorssdeziel: it's basically a task assignment at school, they recommend ossec but i like to go more into detail and provide the same functionality by using more simple but multiplie tools that is easier to understand and maintain.15:17
sdezielhalvors: I've heard about ossec but know very little about it so I can't make recommendations on simpler alternatives :/15:20
halvorssdeziel: i see, ossec seems bloated to me (there is windows rule definitions on the linux version)15:20
lordcirthI have an LXC container which seems hung - lxc-ls and lxc-attach hang. No errors in dmesg. Any debugging tips?15:52
lordcirth16.04 guest and host15:52
halvorsHow to exclude directories (and their subdirectories and files) from being include in aide scan?21:37
sdezielhalvors: IIRC, it was with a rule like that: !/path/to/my/dir21:45
halvorsthx22:18
