# AutomatedBastille(8)

automatically install a profiled Bastille configuration

## NAME

AutomatedBastille - automatically install a profiled Bastille configuration

## SYNOPSIS

**AutomatedBastille**

## DESCRIPTION

This manual page briefly documents **AutomatedBastille**.

This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

**AutomatedBastille** installs a profile configuration file  and calls  **BastilleBackEnd** in order to put all the selected security measures in place. The profile is not adapted to your system; use **BastilleChooser** if you wish to do that.

## OPTIONS

**AutomatedBastille** uses the following options:

- **-v**

  Verbose mode. Actions are printed to the logs and to STDOUT.

- **-l**

  Log-only mode. No action is taken; merely logs what changes would have been made.

- **-r PREFIX**

  All the filenames are prefixed with **PREFIX** (/etc/whatever becomes /PREFIX/etc/whatever). This option could be used to commit changes to NFS filesystems, or file systems with a different mount point than the current root (/) filesystem.

## FILES

*/etc/Bastille/config*

Configuration file which defines all the security measures selected by the administrator to be enabled.

*/var/log/Bastille/action-log*\
 */var/log/Bastille/error-log*

Logs that hold information of actions taken on the system.
