NAME         top

       slapo-auditlog - Audit Logging overlay to slapd

SYNOPSIS         top

       ETCDIR/slapd.conf

       ETCDIR/slapd.d

DESCRIPTION         top

       The Audit Logging overlay can be used to record all changes on a
       given backend database to a specified log file. Changes are
       logged as standard LDIF, with an additional comment header giving
       the timestamp of the change and the identity of the user making
       the change.

       For Add and Modify operations the identity comes from the
       modifiersName associated with the operation. This is usually the
       same as the requestor's identity, but may be set by other
       overlays to reflect other values.

CONFIGURATION         top

       This slapd.conf option applies to the Audit Logging overlay.  It
       should appear after the overlay directive.

       auditlog <filename>
              Specify the fully qualified path for the log file.

       olcAuditlogFile <filename>
              For use with cn=config

EXAMPLE         top

       The following LDIF could be used to add this overlay to cn=config
       (adjust to suit)

              dn: olcOverlay=auditlog,olcDatabase={1}mdb,cn=config
              changetype: add
              objectClass: olcOverlayConfig
              objectClass: olcAuditLogConfig
              olcOverlay: auditlog
              olcAuditlogFile: /tmp/auditlog.ldif
