I've just posted FCheck v2.07.53 with several improvements such as single file monitoring, consolidation of the databases into one, UID/GID, Link counts, and Major/Minor number monitoring for device files.

Hi,I think there are 2 mistakes (that I canspot) in the install documentation:1)DataBase: --------- Used to convey the full path and filename that FCheck should utilize to store all of its baseline generated files. As pointed out elsewhere in this document the database filename that you use could be any existing directory and filename of your own desire. Database = /usr/local/fcheck/fcheck.dbf # Win32 systems include the drive letter as follows: Database = C:/FCheck/FCheck.dbf The above example would utilize the "/usr/local/fcheck/db" directory for storage of baseline snapshot databases, and "C:/Fcheck/FCheck.dbf" on a DOS system.The first example explanation refers toa .../db directory, which is not correct.2)The number of keywords did not includethe "FILE" type.Keep up the good work!--Chris Ho |

Thanks, for the extra eyes. I'll fix the typo next time around. I read this too late to fix it in the 2.7.54 upload. |

I've just tried fcheck for the first time. It looks very useful. I have a question, if it's a silly newbie question, forgive me: I tried "Directory=/" but this didn't scan subdirectories of /Is there a way to scan all directories? (I would then just exclude specific directories). |

It's built that way to protect the user from scanning an entire system. Depending on how loarge the system is, it could be a while before it completes a scan.Fcheck was born on a Unix system, so I tried to make it idiot proof by not looking at the Unix device files. http://www.geocities.com/fcheck2000 |

Hi, thanks for developing such a program! :) I've this one question tho'.I've configured everything to my UNIX box and it gives me this error - WARNING: [brone.singa.pore.net] /usr/local/fcheck/fcheck.dbf [Sizes: 0 - 1707] even though I've done fcheck -ac and fcheck -a many times over (with no changes to the files) Any idea? :) |
