freebsd stable - Oct 2004 - tripwire port broken in 5.3b7

Hi,

Is there any chance that tripwire will be fixed in the near future, or
should I investigate a substitute? And if so, which one? Otherwise, has
anyone tried just compiling the source unchanged?

thanks,

No idea about tripwire.  

I've been using Aide (http://www.cs.tut.fi/~rammer/aide.html and it's in
the port tree) which is really good.  However, it does not do networking
very well yet -- it's a young project.  I've hacked a script that does
"networking" for it -- well, scp database file, check against that.
It's not ideal but it works for me -- I've just got two servers for
which this is needed.

Otherwise, there's Radmind and Samhain.  But I can't really comment on
the virtues/flaws of either.

Hope this is helpful.

I don't think anyone is looking at it, it's been broken for about 18
months.  Try using tripwire-131 instead, which seems to be a later
version.
