DESCRIPTION

      aide is an intrusion detection system for checking the integrity of files.

COMMANDS

      --check, -C
             Checks  the  database  for inconsistencies. You must have an initialized database to do this. This is also
             the default command. Without any command aide does a check.
 
      --init, -i
             Initialize the database. You must initialize a database and move it to the appropriate  place  before  you
             can use the --check command.
 
      --update, -u
             Checks  the  database  and updates the database non-interactively.  The input and output databases must be
             different.
 
      --compare
             Compares two databases. They must be defined in configfile with database=<url> and database_new=<url>.
