Introduction Change Auditor for Authentication Services Events Built-in Reports

Introduction

Authentication Services is patented technology that enables organizations to extend the security and compliance of Active Directory to UNIX, Linux, and Mac platforms and enterprise applications. Using Change Auditor, you can track, audit, report and alert on all critical changes to:

•

Unix/Linux/Mac-related data for Active Directory users, groups, computers, NIS objects and Authentication Services personalities

•

Unix/Linux/Mac settings in Group Policy Objects


	NOTE: Authentication Services auditing is only available when you have Authentication Services 4.0 (or later) installed and a Change Auditor for Active Directory license.

This guide lists the events that can be captured by Change Auditor for Authentication Services. Separate event reference guides are provided that list the core Change Auditor events (when any Change Auditor license is applied) and the events captured when the different auditing modules are licensed.

Change Auditor for Authentication Services Events

Change Auditor for Authentication Services queries Active Directory for modifications made to the Authentication Services configuration container. This section lists the audited events captured by Change Auditor for Authentication Services. They are listed in alphabetical order by facility.


	IMPORTANT: When expecting large numbers of events, it may be necessary to increase the Max Events per Connection setting in the client (Agent Configuration on the Administration Tasks tab) to avoid an ever-increasing backlog of events waiting to be sent from the agent to the coordinator database.


	NOTE: To view a complete list of all the Change Auditor events, open the Audit Events page on the Administration Tasks tab in the client. This page contains a list of all the events available for auditing by Change Auditor. It also displays the facility to which the event belongs, the severity assigned to each event, if the event is enabled or disabled, and the type of Change Auditor license that is required to capture each event.
