Hi,

Question 1:

Can anyone tell me what is the different between 3 packets as below?

  1. Audit Message Packets

  2. Audit Presence Packets

  3. Audit IQ Packets

Question 2:

Why after I make a changes on ‘‘Message Audit Policy’’

Maximum size of all files (MB): 2048

Maximum file size (MB): 30

Maximum days to archive: -1

My Server “Logs” folder left only:

admin-console.log

error_2.log

error_5.log

jive.audit-20060713-000.log

stdoutt.log

warn_3.log

warn.log

debug.log

error_3.log

error.log

stderror.log

warn_1.log

warn_4.log

error_1.log

error_4.log

info.log

stderr.out

warn_2.log

warn_5.log

and all the previous jive.audit.xxxxx.log files missing?

jlchannel,

Message packets are probably what you’'re most interested in. Presence packets communicate the presence of users and IQ packets are used to send commands to and from the server. You might wish to check out the XMPP protocol for more details.

What were the values for the audit settings before you made the change? Knowing that will help us test for possible bugs.

Regards,

Matt

I’'m not sure what the upper threshold is on these values:

Maximum size of all files (MB): 2048

Maximum file size (MB): 30

But when I set them to 2048 and 16 respectively yesterday, my log stayed at about 1kb and only showed the most recent entries. Immediately after I changed them back to 1000 and 10 (defaults) respectively, it all started working again just fine. Again, I’'m not sure what the upper limit is, but start by putting them back to defaults – 1000 / 10.

Matt:

The previous just a default setting:

Maximum size of all files (MB): 1000

Maximum file size (MB): 10

And now I changed to:

Maximum size of all files (MB): 1000

Maximum file size (MB): 30

and my audit logs file look OK:

-rw-rr 1 root root 30M Jul 14 14:55 jive.audit-20060714-000.log

-rw-rr 1 root root 30M Jul 14 12:26 jive.audit-20060713-004.log

-rw-rr 1 root root 4.6M Jul 14 01:00 jive.audit-20060713-003.log

-rw-rr 1 root root 30M Jul 13 21:15 jive.audit-20060713-002.log

-rw-rr 1 root root 30M Jul 13 16:23 jive.audit-20060713-001.log

-rw-rr 1 root root 30M Jul 13 13:02 jive.audit-20060713-000.log

but I lost my previous logs
