Tripwire is a system integrity checker, a utility that compares properties of designated files and directories against information stored in a previously generated database. Any changes to these files are flagged and logged, including those that were added or deleted, with optional email reporting. Additionally, support files (databases, reports, etc.) are cryptographically signed.

I have written a bash script which creates a new twpol.txt based on the objects that are actually present on a system - it comments out the rest.
If anyone is interested, please message me.

Are there going to be future updates?

Stale project?
From the looks of CVS this projects has been touched since Aug. 2000. Had problems with the ./configure. It wasn't translating ${prefix} in the config.h-in file. I had to edit them by hand.
why do I have two tw.cfg files?
Hi,
I have combined tripwire with mktripol succesfully, but now I have found, that tripwire is using a /usr/sbin/tw.cfg which I think is caused by the rule 'ROOT=/usr/sbin' which is at the very top of /etc/tripwire/twcfg.txt
This entry is undocumented, so I'd like to ask:
-Who put it there?
-Does it make trouble, if I set 'ROOT=/etc/tripwire' or can I even delete it?
