Another File Integrity Checker

afick is another file integrity checker, designed to be fast and fully portable between Unix and Windows platforms. It works by first creating a database that represents a snapshot of the most essential parts of your computer system. You can then run the script to discover all modifications made since the snapshot was taken (i.e. files added, changed, or removed). The configuration syntax is very close to that of aide or tripwire, and a graphical interface is provided.

07 Feb 2012 15:33

Release Notes: SHA-256 and SHA-512 checksum algorithms were added to replace SHA-1 for better security. Output of SHA-* checksums are now compatible with the output of the sha1sum, sha256sum, and sha512sum commands.

15 Nov 2011 22:05

Release Notes: RPM packages have compatibility with the old RPM digest format. A new option (--csv) is added to allow export of the database in CSV format. A new macro (MAILAUTH), permits mail authentication on Windows. A new directive (allow_relativepath) is added that makes internal controls use relative path instead absolute path. A new syntax for file/directories and use of the AFICK_CHROOT environment variable allow 'chrooted directories': this will be used via check from CD-ROM.

2.18

10 Oct 2011 14:46

Release Notes: This release fixes a lot of little problems on Windows operating systems. A delete button has been added in afick_set_planning.pl. Environment variables in the configuration file are now expanded on-the-fly at the beginning of a run. The program's documentation has been updated.

2.17

09 Jun 2011 21:34

Release Notes: Arguments for the --list option should now be separated by a comma instead a space character. Search for the default config file is now the same for Unix and Linux: /etc/afick.conf and then afick.conf. The version is now shared between afick and afick-tk. Arguments for --list can also be given in several calls.
