AUDITCTL(2) FreeBSD System Calls Manual AUDITCTL(2) NAME auditctl -- Configure system audit parameters SYNOPSIS #include <bsm/audit.h> int auditctl(const char *path); DESCRIPTION The auditctl() system call directs the kernel to open a new audit trail log file. auditctl() requires appropriate privilege. In the FreeBSD implementation, auditctl() opens new files, but auditon() is used to dis- able the audit log. In the Mac OS X implementation, passing NULL to auditctl() will disable the audit log. RETURN VALUES auditctl returns 0 on success, or returns -1 on failure, providing addi- tional error information via errno.
