Check Text (C-217199r958754_chk)

Verify "audispd" off-loads audit records onto a different system or media from the SUSE operating system being audited. Check if "audispd" is configured to off-load audit records onto a different system or media from the SUSE operating system by running the following command: # sudo cat /etc/audisp/audisp-remote.conf | grep remote_server remote_server = 192.168.1.101 If "remote_server" is not set to an external server or media, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-18425r369754_fix)

Configure the SUSE operating system "/etc/audisp/audisp-remote.conf" file to off-load audit records onto a different system or media by adding or editing the following line with the correct IP address: remote_server = [IP ADDRESS]
