How to log down command or action done on server


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi,

I want to know whether it is possible for Windows Server 2003 to log down

command or action done on it. If yes, how to accomplish this. Thanks.

That is virtually impossible on any OS. I think you can trace OS system

calls but overwhelming amount of information will be more or less useless.

 

What exactly are you trying to achieve?

Hi,

I want to log down any action both entering command or clicking via GUI done

on the server, so that I can trace whether the server is being used by

someone unexpectedly. Thanks.

Hi Pidgorny,

Can you describe in more details on how to "running all the .exe files on

the current image" after enabling the audit logging? Thanks.

Easy. Once the audit on the files is enabled, access to .exe files will be

audited. The information will include who runs what.
