aset.restore(1M) System Administration Commands aset.restore(1M)NAMEaset.restore - restores system files to their content before ASET is
installed
SYNOPSISaset.restore [-d aset_dir]
DESCRIPTIONaset.restore restores system files that are affected by the Automated
Security Enhancement Tool (ASET) to their pre-ASET content. When ASET
is executed for the first time, it saves and archives the original
system files in the /usr/aset/archives directory. The aset.restore
utility reinstates these files. It also deschedules ASET, if it is
currently scheduled for periodic execution. See asetenv(4).
If you have made changes to system files after running ASET, these
changes are lost when you run aset.restore. If you want to be abso‐
lutely sure that you keep the existing system state, it is recommended
that you back-up your system before using aset.restore.
You should use aset.restore, under the following circumstances:
You want to remove ASET permanently and restore the original
system (if you want to deactivate ASET, you can remove it from
scheduling).
You are unfamiliar with ASET and want to experiment with it.
You can use aset.restore to restore the original system state.
When some major system functionality is not working properly and
you suspect that ASET is causing the problem; you may want to
restore the system to see if the problem persists without ASET.
aset.restore requires root privileges to execute.
