Pakket: snoopy (2.5.1-2)

execve() wrapper and logger

snoopy is merely a shared library that is used as a wrapper to the execve() function provided by libc as to log every call to syslog (authpriv). system administrators may find snoopy useful in tasks such as light/heavy system monitoring, tracking other administrator's actions as well as getting a good 'feel' of what's going on in the system (for example Apache running cgi scripts).

This type of monitoring can be bypassed by hostile users, and should not be considered a secure replacement for tools like auditd.
