Changed the subject a bit to make it more clear what this is about -- O'Reilly Active Directory Third Edition - http://www.joeware.net/win/ad3e.htm _____ From: ActiveDir-owner@mail.activedir.org [mailto:ActiveDir-owner@mail.activedir.org] On Behalf Of Matt Beaman Sent: Wednesday, April 23, 2008 8:00 AM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: [ActiveDir] Simple and clear auditing Hi there, Looking for the simplest way (and best practice) to enable accurate and simplified auditing to track access to folders and files. Currently i've turned on all the audit options through "security", "advanced", "auditing" and "add". This results in a load of 560 id events, which seem to list every file within the "my documents" folder within a space of seconds. This clearly doesn't mean all the files have been accessed by a specific user, but maybe the "my documents" folder accessed. Also have numerous entires for desktop.ini etc. Question is how to setup soley to report when files are accessed? Further question is what is the best use of event id to montior user logon and off (540, 538 etc) and also to differentiate between system processes and tasks (maybe with that user account) against accurate timings of the user logging on and off? If there are any tools or products that can further expand on these issues, that would also be of help, Cheers, Matt ************************************************************************ The information contained in this e-mail may be subject to public disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.
