DEC's /dev/audit was the way they got Orange Book Class C certification,
IIRC. As I understand it, though, it produced so many logs that you needed
a separate gigabyte volume to hold them all on an active system!

It would be worthwhile to look into a version of this, and also Sun's
stuff (which was also used to get Class C).

If FreeBSD could get Class C certification, it would open up an amazing
number of doors.
