--- name: "BastilleBackEnd" section: "8" platform: "linux" package: "bastille" version: "1:2.1.1-19" release: "Debian 5.0 (Lenny)" platforms: ["linux"] url: "https://new.carta.tech/BastilleBackEnd" --- # BastilleBackEnd(8) harden a host ## NAME BastilleBackEnd - harden a host ## SYNOPSIS **BastilleBackEnd** ## DESCRIPTION This manual page briefly documents briefly **BastilleBackEnd .** This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. **BastilleBackEnd** implements all the changes configured previously by using **InteractiveBastille** or **AutomatedBastille** based on the appropiate configuration file. ## OPTIONS **BastilleBackEnd** 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. */var/log/Bastille/undo/* Directory holding all information for the undo operation. ## SEE ALSO [**AutomatedBastille**(8)](/AutomatedBastille/8.md), [**RevertBastille**(8)](/RevertBastille/8.md). [**InteractiveBastille**(8)](/InteractiveBastille/8.md).\ The programs have more documentation available at **/usr/share/doc/bastille** on Debian systems. ## AUTHOR This manual page was written by Javier Fernandez-Sanguino Peña \ for the Debian GNU/Linux system (but may be used on other systems). **Bastille** was primarily written by Jay Beale, and is licensed under the GNU General Public License
