I submitted PR 14515 in October requesting the inclusion of
Tripwire-1.3 in the ports collection. A shar archive of the port is in
the PR. I've been using the Tripwire 1.3 "port" on FreeBSD for about
1.5 years.
Yesterday I submitted PR 15893 (mhash-0.6.1) and 15894 (aide-0.5)
requesting the inclusion of AIDE, Advanced Intrusion Detection
Environment, a Tripwire clone, in the ports collection. Shar archives
of the ports are in the PR's.
In my discussions with Tripwire, they mentioned to me that since they
do not have any plans to produce a version of their commercial Tripwire
2.0 for FreeBSD that I was free to use the academic Tripwire 1.3 on
FreeBSD in a commercial environment.
