NAME
       praudit -- print	the contents of	audit trail files

SYNOPSIS
       praudit [-lpx] [-r | -s]	[-d del] [file ...]

DESCRIPTION
       The praudit utility prints the contents of the audit trail files	to the
       standard	 output	in human-readable form.	 If no file argument is	speci-
       fied, the standard input	is used	by default.

       The options are as follows:

       -d del  Specifies the delimiter.	 The default delimiter is the comma.

       -l      Prints the entire record	on the same line.  If this  option  is
	       not specified, every token is displayed on a different line.

       -p      Specify	this  option  if  input	 to  praudit is	piped from the
	       tail(1) utility.	 This causes praudit to	sync to	the  start  of
	       the next	record.

       -r      Prints  the records in their raw, numeric form.	This option is
	       exclusive from -s.

       -s      Prints the tokens in their short	form.  Short text  representa-
	       tions  for record and event type	are displayed.	This option is
	       exclusive from -r.

       -x      Print audit records in the XML output format.

       If the raw or short forms are not specified, the	default	 is  to	 print
       the  tokens  in their long form.	 Events	are displayed as per their de-
       scriptions given	in /etc/security/audit_event; UIDs and	GIDs  are  ex-
       panded  to their	names; dates and times are displayed in	human-readable
       format.

FILES
