Linux Auditd: Why are users showing as unknown?

I'm getting user unknown even though I have the posix accounts populated. Any idea as to why this happens?

=====Edit=====
I missed a step in that I need to generate the local users list. Anyone know if this is supposed to be locally on the indexer or from all the linux boxes?

Hi rich7177,

The lookup only needs to be populated on the search head.

Cheers,
