Hi Everyone, I have a machine which is used as a file server. I would like to
set it up so that every file and folder accessed by a user is logged.

How can I set this up and how can I view the log files?

Thanks, Phil
 
You can do that BUT it will leave an incredible amount of entries in your
security log and even slow computer performance noticeably. A better
solution would be to only audit the folders that have sensitive information
for the bare number of permissions needed to do the job. You would need to
look at the object access events such as 560 in the security log. Be sure to
increase the size of the security log quit a bit to maybe 50 MB or so. The
links below explains more. --- Steve
