While doing some research for ways to produce a unified audit log for OES & SLES services I came across the OpenXDAS Package.

On the project website they have reference documentation for anyone who's instrumented their application to Novell Audit which helps to change the instrumentation to OpenXDAS.

This is a welcome change, but I have to wonder whether there is any momentum behind it?

What I find odd is that NSS and much of SLES is instrumented for the standard distribution auditd. Why is there a differing direction here? Are there plans for these two to converge at some point?
