NAME
     auditreduce -- select records from audit trail files

SYNOPSIS
     auditreduce [-A] [-a YYYYMMDD[HH[MM[SS]]]] [-b YYYYMMDD[HH[MM[SS]]]]
		 [-c flags] [-d YYYYMMDD] [-e euid] [-f egid] [-g rgid] [-j id]
		 [-m event] [-o object=value] [-r ruid] [-u auid] [-v] [-z zone]
		 [file ...]

DESCRIPTION
     The auditreduce utility selects records from the audit trail files based on
     the specified criteria.  Matching audit records are printed to the standard
     output  in  their	raw  binary form.  If no file argument is specified, the
     standard input is used by default.  Use the praudit(1) utility to print the
     selected audit records in human-readable form.

     The options are as follows:

     -A      Select all records.

     -a YYYYMMDD[HH[MM[SS]]]
	     Select records that occurred after or on the given datetime.

     -b YYYYMMDD[HH[MM[SS]]]
	     Select records that occurred before the given datetime.

     -c flags
	     Select records matching the given	audit  classes	specified  as  a
	     comma  separated  list  of audit flags.  See audit_control(5) for a
	     description of audit flags.

     -d YYYYMMDD
	     Select records that occurred on a given date.  This  option  cannot
	     be used with -a or -b.

     -e euid
	     Select records with the given effective user ID or name.

     -f egid
	     Select records with the given effective group ID or name.

     -g rgid
	     Select records with the given real group ID or name.

     -j id   Select records having a subject token with matching ID, where ID is
	     a process ID.

     -m event
	     Select records with the given event name or number. This option can
	     be  used  more then once to select records of multiple event types.
	     See audit_event(5) for a description of audit event names and  num-
	     bers.

     -o object=value

	     file    Select  records  containing path tokens, where the pathname
		     matches one of the comma delimited extended regular expres-
		     sion contained in given specification.  Regular expressions
		     which are prefixed with a tilde (`~') are excluded from the
		     search results.  These  extended  regular	expressions  are
		     processed from left to right, and a path will either be se-
		     lected or deslected based on the first match.

		     Since commas are used to delimit the regular expressions, a
		     backslash	(`\')  character  should  be  used to escape the
		     comma if it is a part of the search pattern.

	     msgqid  Select records containing the given message queue ID.

	     pid     Select records containing the given process ID.

	     semid   Select records containing the given semaphore ID.

	     shmid   Select records containing the given shared memory ID.

     -r ruid
	     Select records with the given real user ID or name.

     -u auid
	     Select records with the given audit ID.

     -v      Invert sense of matching, to select records that do not match.

     -z zone
	     Select records from the given zone(s).  zone is a glob for zones to
	     match.

EXAMPLES
     To select all records associated with effective user ID root from the audit
     log /var/audit/20031016184719.20031017122634:

	   auditreduce -e root \
	       /var/audit/20031016184719.20031017122634

     To select all setlogin(2) events from that log:

	   auditreduce -m AUE_SETLOGIN \
	       /var/audit/20031016184719.20031017122634

     Output from the above command lines will typically be piped to a new  trail
     file, or via standard output to the praudit(1) command.

     Select  all  records  containing  a  path token where the pathname contains
     /etc/master.passwd:

	   auditreduce -o file="/etc/master.passwd" \
	       /var/audit/20031016184719.20031017122634

     Select all records containing path tokens, where the pathname is a TTY  de-
     vice:

	   auditreduce -o file="/dev/tty[a-zA-Z][0-9]+" \
	       /var/audit/20031016184719.20031017122634

     Select  all records containing path tokens, where the pathname is a TTY ex-
     cept for /dev/ttyp2:

	   auditreduce -o file="~/dev/ttyp2,/dev/tty[a-zA-Z][0-9]+" \
	       /var/audit/20031016184719.20031017122634

     the OpenBSM distribution.
