Introduction

Member of Group auditing allows you to audit specific users based on their group membership.

* 
IMPORTANT: By default, Change Auditor monitors the user object class at the enterprise level. To limit the scope of users who will be audited, delete the user object class from the Active Directory Auditing page. Then use the Member of Group Auditing page to define the users to be audited.

The Group Membership Expansion pane on the Coordinator Configuration page (Administration Tasks tab) allows you to define and schedule the expansion of nested membership of the Active Directory groups defined on the Member of Group Auditing page. See the Quest Change Auditor User Guide for more information on defining group membership expansion behavior.

Member of Group Auditing page

The Member of Group Auditing page is displayed when you select Member of Group from the Auditing task list in the navigation pane of the Administration Tasks page. Member of Group auditing allows you to meet your auditing requirements by specifying the users to be audited based on their group membership.

This page list the groups whose users are to be audited based on their group membership. To add a group to this list, use the Add tool bar button. Once added, the following information is displayed:

To add a group to the Member of Group Auditing list:

5
Click Add to open the Member of Group Auditing wizard to locate and select the groups whose users are to be audited.

If required, use the Forest drop-down to select the forest where the objects are located. Foreign agent forests may require foreing forest credentials which you can enter on the Credentials Required dialog.

Repeat this step to add additional groups.
