+.Sh NAME
+.Nm auditd
+.Nd audit log management daemon
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Nm auditd
+.Op Fl dhs
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+daemon responds to requests from the audit(1) utility and notifications
+from the kernel. It manages the resulting audit log files and specified
+log file locations.
+.Pp
+The options are as follows:
+.Bl -tag -width Ds
+.It Fl d
+Starts the daemon in debug mode - it will not daemonize.
+.It Fl h
+Specifies that if auditing cannot be performed as specified, the system should
+halt (panic). Normally, the system will attempt to proceed - although individual
+processes may be stopped (see the -s option).
+.It Fl s
+Specifies that individual processes should stop rather than perform operations
+that may cause audit records to be lost due to log file full conditions
+.El
+.Sh NOTE
+.Pp
+To assure uninterrupted audit support, the
+.Nm auditd
+daemon should not be started and stopped manually. Instead, the audit(1) command
+should be used to inform the daemon to change state/configuration after altering
+the audit_control file.
+.Pp
+.\" Sending a SIGHUP to a running
+.\" .Nm auditd
+.\" daemon will force it to exit.
+Sending a SIGTERM to a running
+.Nm auditd
+daemon will force it to exit.
+.Sh FILES
+.Bl -tag -width "/var/audit" -compact
+.It Pa /var/audit
+Default directory for storing audit log files.

+of McAfee, Inc., under contract to Apple Computer Inc.
+Additional authors include Wayne Salamon, Robert Watson, and SPARTA Inc.
+.Pp
+The Basic Security Module (BSM) interface to audit records and audit event
+stream format were defined by Sun Microsystems.
+.Sh HISTORY

+division of McAfee Inc., under contract to Apple Computer Inc. in 2004.
+It was subsequently adopted by the TrustedBSD Project as the foundation for
+the OpenBSM distribution.
