Change Auditor for Logon Activity 7.4 - User Guide

Recommendations/deployment requirements

When the first foreign workstation agent is manually installed, a ChangeAuditor Agents - <InstallationName> security group is created. User accounts must be added to this security group in order to properly authenticate.
The Workstation Agent installer allows you to add the domain user account to the ChangeAuditor Agents – <InstallationName> security group, if appropriate LDAP and network protocol access is available.
NOTE: In some cases, it might be necessary to pre-stage\create the ChangeAuditor Agents – <InstallationName> security group and manually add the configured workstation agent user account to the security group.

Manual workstation agent deployment

When installed manually, the Change Auditor Workstation Agent installer must be run as an account with the local administrator account privileges and with elevated User Account Control (UAC) permissions.

NOTE: Depending on the User Account Control (UAC) policies (refer to User Account Control (UAC) settings for more information), elevated UAC permissions may require launching the installer using one of the following methods:

On the Active Directory Information screen, enter the Active Directory information which will allow the agent to establish a coordinator connection.

Name of Active Directory Root Domain
(domain.com)

Enter the DNS name (domain.com) of the root domain of Active Directory.

Account Name (domain\user)

Enter the name of the user (domain\user) that can find and connect to a Change Auditor coordinator in the Active Directory forest.

Account Password

Enter the password associated with the user account entered above.

Add this user to the “ChangeAuditor Agents - <InstallationName>” security group

This check box is selected by default indicating that the user account specified above will be added to the ChangeAuditor Agents security group.

The Installation Name screen will prompt you to enter the installation name to identify the database to which the coordinator is to be connected. A workstation agent must join an existing Change Auditor installation.

ChangeAuditor Installation Name

Click Next to use the DEFAULT installation name.

If you want to use a different Change Auditor installation, enter the installation name of an existing Change Auditor installation or click the Browse button to select an existing Change Auditor installation. Clicking the Browse button will display the Browse for ChangeAuditor Installation dialog allowing you to select from a list of existing installations.

Appendix: Agent Comparison

There are a few Change Auditor client features that are not available for workstation agents. The following table displays the agent-related features that are available for server and workstation agents.

The Deployment page will not display non-member objects, such as ADAM workgroup servers or non-Active Directory workstations, because agents cannot be deployed to non-member objects using the Deployment tab. See the Appendix: Workstation Agent Deploymentfor more information on manually installing agents to workgroup servers or non-Active Directory workstations.
