Hello guys it's me again, I need some help. What I'm doing is listing all the file and directories Recusively and using it a a master file. Then I need to do the same the nest day to make sure nothing was deleted or modified. What happen is file in one of out major directories was deleted without anyone knowing, So I'm trying to write a script so that next time we will be on top of it.
Plus I need to have the deleted and modified files put into some kinda report.
You will need to somehow keep track of what "today" looks like so that you can compare it to "tomorrow". Use the search button on the site and search for posts with the find command. Use the find command along with flags such as -mtime, -ctime, -atime, -newer. For an indepth explanation of find with these flags, see man find
Are you searching for something to use for Host Intrusion Detection (HID[s])? I've not used AIDE, but it seems to be a good fit if that is what you are looking for: http://www.cs.tut.fi/~rammer/aide.html .
Cheers,
