Description Mark H Johnson 2001-08-09 11:53:00 EDT 
Description of Problem:
Installed roswell (all packages). Tripwire was apparently included &
configured into the daily cron job. Email to root indicates it is not set
up properly (and sort of explained how...).

Did the first step...
  /etc/tripwire/twinstall.sh
No indication after that was complete that more was needed to be done.
Email to root the next day....

Did the second step...
  tripwire --init
Error seen as follows...
### Error: File could not be opened.
### Filename: /usr/sbin/tw.cfg
### No such file or directory
### Configuration file could not be read.
### Exiting...
OK, tried this...
  cp /etc/tripwire/tw.cfg /usr/sbin/tw.cfg
  tripwire --init
A gazillion messages ensue some time later [see attachment].

At this point, I'm wondering if I should turn it off, or if I really got it
installed OK. I guess I'll find out tomorrow.

Can the defaults be improved to either (or all)...
 [1] when added to cron.daily, require configuration (or at least tell me
it is needed during installation)
 [2] make the default configuration match what Red Hat 7.2 installs

How Reproducible:
Install "all packages" in roswell and follow the description above.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. [see above]
2. 
3. 

Actual Results:
See above & attachment.

Expected Results:
Tripwire be properly configured prior to addition to cron.daily.

We (Red Hat) should really try to fix this before next release.
Comment 3 Mike A. Harris 2001-08-15 08:24:52 EDT 
Nalin, you commented something to me about tripwire a week ago or
so, was this the problem fixed?
Comment 4 Nalin Dahyabhai 2001-08-15 15:21:23 EDT 
Oops, yes.  This should be fixed in 2.3.1-5 and later.  Marking as MODIFIED for
verification.
