NAME
       aide(1,5) - Advanced Intrusion Detection Environment

SYNOPSIS
       aide(1,5) [options] command

DESCRIPTION
       aide(1,5)  is  an  intrusion  detection system for checking the integrity of
       files.


COMMANDS
       --check,
              Checks the database for inconsistencies. You must have  an  ini-
              tialized  database  to do this. This is also the default option.
              Without any command aide(1,5) does a check.

       --init,
              Initialize the database. You must initialize a database and move(3x,7,3x curs_move)
              it  to  the  appropriate  place  before  you can use the --check
              option.

       --update,
              Checks the database and updates the database  non-interactively.
              The input and output databases must be different.

       --compare
              Compares  two databases. They must be defined in(1,8) configfile with
              database=<url> and database_new=<url>.

PARAMETERS
       --config=configfile
              Configuration  is  read(2,n,1 builtins)  from   file(1,n)   configfile   instead   of
              "./aide.conf". Use '-' for stdin.

       --before="configparameters"
              These  configparameters  are  handled  before the reading of the
              configuration file. See aide.conf (5) for more details  on  what
              to put here.

       --after="configparameters"
              These configparameters are handled after the reading of the con-
              figuration file. See aide.conf (5) for more details on  what  to
              put here.

       --verbose=verbosity_level,-Vverbosity_level
              Controls how verbose aide(1,5) is. Value must [0-255]. The default is
              5. With no argument Value is set(7,n,1 builtins) to 20.  This  option  overrides
              the value set(7,n,1 builtins) in(1,8) a configuration file.

       --report=reporter,-r
              reporter  is  a  URL which tells aide(1,5) where to send(2,n) it's output.
              See aide.conf (5) section URLS for available values.

       --version,-v
              aide(1,5) prints out its version(1,3,5) number

       --help,-h
              Prints out the standard help message.
