Have you tried this again on a newer distribution or with all errata updates applied?
Hi Mark, Yes my RH7.3 system has all errata applied, including kernel. Unfortunatly the same problem. Currently installed: tripwire 2.3.1 10 Build Date: Tue 26 Feb 2002 03:11:18 PM PST however have tried later versions with same result.
Moving to RHEL2.1 which may be affected by this issue
We've just done a tripwire rebuild to fix a possible security flaw for RHEL2.1: http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2004-244.html
Since RHEL7.3 is end of life and we issued this tripwire rebuild I'm going to close the bug. Please reopen it if necessary.
