What is AIDE?
AIDE (Advanced Intrusion Detection Environment) is a free replacement for Tripwire. It does the same things as the semi-free Tripwire and more.
There are other free replacements available so why build a new one? All the other replacements do not achieve the level of Tripwire. And I wanted a program that would exceed the limitations of Tripwire.
What does it do?
It creates a database from the regular expression rules that it finds from the config file. Once this database is initialized it can be used to verify the integrity of the files. It has several message digest algorithms (md5,sha1,rmd160,tiger,haval,etc.) that are used to check the integrity of the file. More algorithms can be added with relative ease. All of the usual file attributes can also be checked for inconsistencies. It can read databases from older or newer versions. See the manual pages within the distribution for further info. There is also a beginning of a manual.

I found a bug. What do I do?
First, make sure the bug stil exists in the current version from CVS (see below). If it does, report the bug via the SourceForge Bug system. We can only respond to your report if you log in before reporting.
I want to contribute a larger set of patches.
You should e-mail the developers for the best way to contribute.
I would like to help but don't know how.
You can send me Jolt, Computer Security related books and anything you think that would encourage me to donate more time to this project.
CVS-server
We have a CVS-server that is hosted by sourceforge.net. Look there for more information.
For a more comprehensive overview we suggest reading this document.
If you cannot use CVS but want to try the latest features and fixes you can download a daily CVS snapshot.
Future plans
