Riley is a file integrity checker written in Perl,somewhat similar to Tripwire.

Running 'riley -initialize' puts a file called '.riley' in each directory specified in the configuration file. Each '.riley' file contains N one-line descriptions, one description per file. Each description contains the name of the file, type, size, owner, group,
permissions, and number of links. If the file is a regular file, each description also contains an MD5 checksum of the contents of the file. Each '.riley' file also contains a MD5 checksum of the file itself to forestall tampering.

Running 'riley -examine' compares the current state of every file against the description created earlier by running 'riley -initialize'. If anything has changed, it notes the change both in the system log file and via email. It is noticing the existance of new files as well as the non-existance of deleted files.

If you're feeling paranoid, you can run 'riley -correct' instead of 'riley -examine'. Doing this changes the permissions/ownership of changed files back to what the description file says they should be. 'riley -correct' treats new files suspiciously, changing their ownership/
group to nobody/nobody (99/99 on most RedHat systems), and their permissions to 0. If you don't want to use 'nobody/nobody', change the values of the global variables '$unpriv_u' and '$unpriv_g' to something else, perhaps an owner/group you've specifically created for the occasion.

What's New in This Release:

added code to handle dangling symlinks (thanks to chad townsend)

added code to print usage when option "-help" given

minor cosmetic fixes (removed un-used variables, added comments)

added code to install program to check for "chattr"
tags

the file file each added code running riley the description riley correct nobody nobody riley examine new files owner group each riley riley initialize riley file
