Sure... When you do group mapping, map them to groups that don't have the domain admins in them. I have a separate OU=Groups that has "Splunk Users, Splunk Admins, Splunk Power Users" as group names, and specific users…

I want to give LDAP access to my splunk servcie but I don't want the LDAP users to have admin capabilitys in Splunk. Can I keep the domain admins out of Splunk if I have LDAP authentication???

fschange - change detection criteria
Hi All,
How to only send the full event in case of user/group or hash change but not time change of file in the scope of fschange?
As example:
[fschange:/etc/config.cfg]
fullEvent=true
sendEventMaxSize=-1
Now every time the file is touched, even without change, the complete content of the file is indexed.
In other words how to configure the [fschange] not to send ‘fullEvent’ in case of modtime change alone.
Thank you.
BR,
Stefan

Stefan..
What is happening to the file? Is someone opening the file and saving it, so the modtime's getting updated? Or is someone just reading the file?
Also.. which OS is it on?

Hi Michael,
Thanks for the response. The file is just being touched, as open and saved without being changed.
The hash in splunk desn't change however the complete file is indexed. When the files are really changed the hash changes and the file is indexed again.
My objective is to have the files indexed only when there is change in the content (hash)
The OS is AIX.
Regards,
Stefan
