Monitor Access To A Particular Share matthewpomar 09-01-2005

I would like to know who is accessing a server share. For example, I
have a Windows 2000 Server and a share called Public. When someone
successfully reads or writes to this share, I would like to log the
person who accessed it.

I thought enabling auditing of success events on the server would do
the trick, but it did not.

I would appreciate any suggestions for techniques, scripts, or
commercial products.

Regards,
Matthew

When you enabled auditing on the underlying storage, you both set
SACL on the storage and changed (directly or via GPO) the local
security policy Auditing setting so that Success and Failure are
enabled for Audit object access ? You must do both.
