Setting up workstation logon auditing

With workstation logon auditing, you can audit user logon and logoff events including lock and unlock. Enabling the default port adds these workstation events to the event definitions:

•
User Locked Workstation
•
User Logoff
•
User Logon (interactive)
•
User Logon (Remote Desktop)
•
User Unlocked Workstation

See also:

•
Deploying the workstation logon audit agent
•
Enabling the default port

Deploying the workstation logon audit agent

To audit user logon events, you must enable workstation logon auditing and deploy the workstation logon audit agent to workstations and member servers. Once enabled, the workstation logon auditing service will send messages to the Active Administrator server.

* 
NOTE: The workstation logon auditing service must run under context of the local system account.
To enable workstation logon auditing
1
Select Configuration | User Logon Agent Settings.
2
Enable workstation logon auditing and verify the port number. By default the port number is 15601, which is the port for Active Administrator Foundation Service (AFS).
* 
NOTE: If Windows® Firewall is enabled on the workstation where the Active Administrator Workstation Logon Auditing Agent is installed, you need to create an exception to allow communication with Active Administrator Foundation Service (AFS) through port 15601. See Enabling the default port.

Click Save.
To deploy the workstation logon agent from a GPO
1
Open Windows Explorer.
2
Navigate to C:\Program Files\Quest\Active Administrator\Server\WorkstationLogonAuditAgent.

Copy ActiveAdministrator.admx to C:\Windows\PolicyDefinitions on a domain controller.
•
Copy ActiveAdministrator.adml to C:\Windows\PolicyDefinitions\en-US on a domain controller.
•
Copy Active Administrator 8.7 Workstation Audit Agent.msi to a share where everyone has access.
3
Log on to the domain controller where you copied the .ADMX and .ADML files in step 2.
4
Open the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) and create a new Group Policy Object (GPO), such as Active Administrator Workstation Logon Agent.
5
Edit the GPO. Navigate to Computer Configuration | Policies | Software Settings | Software installation, right click and choose New | Package.
6
Select the Active Administrator 8.7 Workstation Audit Agent.msi package that you copied in step 2.
7
Choose the Assigned deployment method, and click OK.

In the Server Name box, type the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the Active Administrator server.
•
In the Server Port box, type 15601.

Enable the GPO and apply it to the computers where you want to deploy the workstation logon agent.

Enabling the default port

If Windows Firewall is enabled on the workstation where the workstation logon auditing agent is installed, you need to create an exception to allow communication with Active Administrator® Foundation Service (AFS) through port 15601.

To enable the default port
