Client notes

Disabled audit events

Some events are disabled by default to improve the initial deployment process and reduce the amount of audited event information initially collected. These audited events can easily be enabled on the Audited Events page of the Administration Tasks tab.

See the appropriate Event Reference Guide for a list of the events that are disabled by default.

Enabling encrypted SQL Server connections

By default, connections to a SQL Server are not encrypted; however to encrypt all data transmitted between an application computer and a computer running a SQL Server instance, you can use the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). For more details on configuring client network protocols, see the following Microsoft article: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms190425.aspx

Monitoring ADAM (AD LDS) instances on workgroup servers

Run the appropriate Change Auditor Agent.msi file on the workgroup server to install an agent to monitor ADAM (AD LDS) instances on nondomain servers. See Install an agent to audit ADAM (AD LDS) on workgroup servers for more information.

Using SQL Server Configuration Manager, add a startup parameter called ‘-T1906’ on the Startup Parameters tab in the SQL Server Properties dialog.
•
Restart the SQL Server service.
