[ossec-dev] Re: Ossec and active firewall rule parameters




Hi George,

If you are using ossec v1.0 or greater, it will by default log the event id
and rule id (in addition to the action and ip address).

Example:
Sat Apr  7 21:59:46 ADT 2007
/var/ossec/active-response/bin/firewall-drop.sh delete - 1.1.1.1
1175993269.67597 100361

If you also go to the active response script and add values "$6, $7" it will
log the agent that generated it...

echo "`date` $0 $1 $2 $3 $4 $5 $6 $7" >> ${PWD}/../logs/active-responses.log


Hope it helps.

Hi all,

Sorry if this is mentioned before but I had no way of searching the
mailling list.

The firewall.sh script only passes the IP and the action but I'd also
like to also pass the rule which triggered it purely so when the script
writes it's log file it also appends the rule which is easier then going
between 2 log files trying to established why an IP appeared in the
iptables -L list..

Is this easy to get put in? Sorry, I'm not on the list.

Thanks,
