checksecurity - Run a collection of simple system checks

       The checksecurity.conf file defines several configuration variables: MAILTO,CHECK_DISKFREE, CHECK_PASSWD
       and CHECK_SETUIDLOGDIR.  Each is described below.

       The   checksecurity   program   works   with   a   collection   of   plugins   which   are   located   in
       /usr/share/checksecurity and are configured individually by their own configuration file.

       CHECK_PASSWD  If  this  is  set  to  TRUE  then  the check-passwd script will be invoked.  This script is
       designed to report upon system accounts which have no passwords.  CHECK_DISKFREE If this is set  to  TRUE
       then the check-diskfree script will be invoked and will allow an alert to be sent if there is any mounted
       partition  is  running  short  on  disk space.  CHECK_SETUID If this is set to TRUE then the check-setuid
       script will be invoked, this will compare the setuid binaries upon  the  system  to  those  that  existed
       previously and show the differences.

       The  checksecurity  command runs a small collection of simple system checks which are designed to catch a
       few common security issues.  checksecurity is run by cron in a daily basis.
