Hi list,

With Redhat 8 come tlogs for session recording.

It seems a promising tool to comply with PCI DSS requirement 10.2 which requires Monitoring of all actions taken by any individual with root or administrative privileges.

Redhat preferred way to configure tlog-rec-session is through sssd.

I have doubt about the interaction between the nss  and the session-recording sections.

The man states :

       users (string)

           A comma-separated list of users which should have session recording enabled.

           Matches user names as returned by NSS. I.e. after the possible space

           replacement, case changes, etc.

 

Am I right to understand that if the nss filters some users (root for example) with the filter_users directive, their sessions won’t be recorded even if defined in the session-recording session ?

If yes is there a way to find the discrepancies between the two sections?

 

Thanks

Philippe
