    We’ve been informed that to put our OSX machines in compliance with NISPOM Ch.8 we have to install BSM and enable some specific logging. (BSM is Basic Security Module, and is part of Solaris.)

    I found reference to this on Apple’s OS X Server list, in a post from June which says that BSM was incorporated into the system in 10.3.4.

    Unfortunately I find no reference to BSM either in the software update description for 10.3.4, or in the man pages for OS X 10.3.6 or OS X Server 10.3.6. The website run by the poster has no obvious information about BSM.

    One of our senior sysadmins was informed that Apple’s own open source site had the package, but this link is dead.

    I’ve found this nice little article about Sun™ BSM, but it’s not specific to OSX.

    Google doesn’t return much, at least not in the first 20 hits.

    Anybody have any live links or current information on finding or getting BSM for Mac OS X?
