Hi,

I have Windows 2000 AD. I turned on auditing for account logon
(success/failure). but since Monday suddenly no events were logged to the
event viewer in the section Security. All other events are registered so the
event viewer service is running. I checked the auditing event to see if they
were disabled but they were ok. Any idea how to turn logging on? Thanks

Frank
 
Check and see if the log is full. You can just clear it if you do not need
the info or clear and save it. If that works be sure to increase the size of
the security log to at least 10MB. You also may want to change the behavior
of when "maximum log size is reached" in the properties of the security log.
The options are - overwrite events as needed, overwrite events older than x
number of days, or do not overwrite events and clear log manually. ---
