Table 9-1 Secure Logging Server Startup Commands

Platform

Startup Command

Windows

To determine if the Novell Audit Manager service is running, open the Services applet from Control Panel > Administrative Tools.

On Windows, the startup script for the Secure Logging Server is included in the naudit.exe file. Naudit.exe has an Automatic startup type so lengine.exe loads each time the server restarts.

To manually load or unload the Secure Logging Server on Windows, you must start or stop the Novell Audit Manager service:

  1. Click Start > Settings > Control Panel.

  2. Open the Services window.

    • On Window NT, select Services.

    • On Windows 2000 and XP, select Administrative Tools > Services.

  3. In the list of installed services, right-click Novell Audit Manager, then select Start or Stop.

NetWare®

Lengine.nlm should be running on the server hosting the Secure Logging Server. This is configured to load automatically at startup during install.

To determine if lengine.nlm is loaded, enter m lengine at the NetWare command prompt. If lengine is not loaded, reload it and check the NetWare logger screen for any messages.

To manually load the Secure Logging Server on NetWare, enter

load lengine

or

load auditsvr.ncf

If you want to prevent the Secure Logging Server from being unloaded by users with access to the server console, you can append the -n switch to the server startup script. (For example, load lengine -n .)

To manually unload the Secure Logging Server on NetWare, enter

unload lengine

NOTE:Lengine.nlm and auditsvr.ncf are located in the sys:\system directory.

Linux

To verify that the Secure Logging Server is running, use the following command:

ps -ef |grep lengine

The Linux startup script for the Secure Logging Server is /etc/init.d/novell-naudit . This startup script loads lengine each time the server restarts.

To manually start the Secure Logging Server on Linux, enter

/etc/init.d/novell-naudit start

To stop the Secure Logging Server on Linux, enter

/etc/init.d/novell-naudit stop

Solaris

To verify that the Secure Logging Server is running, use the following command:

ps -ef |grep lengine

On Solaris, the startup script for the Secure Logging Server is /etc/init.d/naudit . This startup script loads lengine each time the server restarts.

To manually start the Secure Logging Server on Solaris, enter

/etc/init.d/naudit start

To stop the Secure Logging Server on Solaris, enter

/etc/init.d/naudit stop
