One mistake is that the config file on debian is not the one in etc.

update-aide.conf > builds new config from etc to > /var/lib/aide/aide.conf.autogenerated

To check use this config file e.g.
aide -c /var/lib/aide/aide.conf.autogenerated

After touch /bin/date the
sudo aide -c /etc/aide/aide.conf –check
did not found the modification.. weird ?

I also mv /bin/date /bin/date2

same it did not detected it.. any ideas of why ?

Ubuntu Server 8.04 64 bit
