Perhaps the auditor is smarter than everyone thinks and is expecting the sysadmin to come to him empty handed and with an explanation as to why the requirements

  He's already done that, and got the reply that every other company did it. The auditor is not just trying to get him to do the right thing.

  The poster has already tried that, which is when the "auditor" replied with the "10 years experience" rant. If this actually is his tactic, then he should be fired simply on the principle that his modus operandi will cost the company clients, as it seems to be in this case. If he just has his head up his ass, then he needs to be fired for gross incompetence and the company may need to notify anyone that he's previously certified that they need to be recertified or at least notify them that there's a potential problem. The "social engineering" idea is definitely worth considering, and the poster definitely needs to run this up the flag pole to his senior management. Preferably, this email would also have the words "contact our legal counsel" prominently displayed.

    Allegedly ten years of experience is more than anyone on Stack Overflow. I had no idea the site was populated by only teenagers.
