What does it mean by comm="FNDWRR.exe"
 
Hi all,
I got value like comm="FNDWRR.exe" in Linux audit log.
I was wondering if someone explain me what does it mean?

Thanks,
Asif

No, I do not think anyone can give you sufficient explanation, because you gave almost no information about what's happened.
a message like that in 16 letters means probably something happened somewhere

I think it is part of oracle apps to generate a temporary file.

Audit software sometimes runs from a linux box but the target is a NT server and end-point clients. So you should check by the IDs. Are they oracle server IDs?

In a linux box, it might have been used to create a temporary file (within oracle apps) but couldn't stop. So after confirming you could see whether the process is alive and if so kill it.

OK
