tripwire logs thing to somewhere else in the box or it just sends mails?
I haven't used tripwire in a while, but logging usually is a configurable option.
what else I need to do so tripwire reads the file I just edited and starts protecting the box
Follow the instructions from the documentation. It's quite clear about initialisting stuff for the config to work.
maybe reboot the machine?
No, that's wintendo behaviour :-]
Rebooting should not be necessary.
