Another File Integrity Checker

afick is another file integrity checker, designed to be fast and fully portable between Unix and Windows platforms. It works by first creating a database that represents a snapshot of the most essential parts of your computer system. You can then run the script to discover all modifications made since the snapshot was taken (i.e. files added, changed, or removed). The configuration syntax is very close to that of aide or tripwire, and a graphical interface is provided.

2.13-1

19 Jan 2009 14:27

Changes: A new configuration directive (only_suffix) was added to improve the scan's speed on operating systems like Windows. A new analysis command (test_ext) was added to display statistics on suffix extensions. The code can now detect if a file's modification date is in the future.

2.12

23 Oct 2008 08:18

Changes: The code now works with perl 5.10. On Windows, afick_planning now sends a report instead of a summary and uses the "LINES" macro. On Unix, a new MOUNT macro allows you to use a remote database in afick_cron. Udev files were removed from scan. The tar.gz installer was recoded to display better diagnostics.

2.11

16 Apr 2008 03:54

Changes: On Windows, the batch task (afick_planning) can now send the report by mail, if the MAILTO and MAILHOST macros are configured in the configuration file.

2.10-1

23 May 2007 11:13

Changes: Support for syslog was added. The choice of database backend is now dynamic on init. Checksum will no longer change atime if it is allowed by the operating system. The post-install can use environment variables (used on Windows). The afick_cron script is now compatible with old Bourne syntax (ash). The auto-control was improved.
