I used the instructions found in website https://webhostinggeeks.com/howto/how-to-check-system-integrity-on-ubuntu/ and followed them successfully to a point.

  1. sudo apt update
  2. sudo apt upgrade
  3. sudo apt install aide
  4. sudo aideinit

Then the next step (5.) failed

  1. sudo aide.wrapper --check

Output is as follows;

.......@...........:~$ sudo aide.wrapper --check

sudo: password for pop-pop:

sudo: aide.wrapper: command not found

I trying to learn Linux - can anyone help with this?

  • What is your Ubuntu version? On 24.04, apt changelog aide mentions "remove no longer needed aide.wrapper" in the release notes for version 0.16.2-87-g9804cf4-1 - so it looks like the guide you are following may not be up to date with the current usage Commented Jun 17 at 14:36
  • I am on 24.04 LTS. I see this is listed as unstable. Any suggestions on a better way to check on system integrity?

  • AFAIK "unstable" just refers to the upstream Debian release, it doesn't mean the software itself is "unstable". You likely just need to replace the removed aide.wrapper --check command with the new simpler aide --check (or plain aide, since --check appears to be the default action). Commented Jun 17 at 21:02
