- A trusted workstation running DOS 3.30 or later.
- Sufficient memory on the workstation to run the AUDITCON utility.
- Read file rights on the AUDITCON utility and help files in the server's file system's public directory.
- AUDITCON version 5.0 installed as a replacement to all previous versions of AUDITCON. Installing AUDITCON version 5.0 is required to allow auditing of new Unicode auditing events.
- NDS® access rights or the correct audit password. Anyone can run the AUDITCON utility. However, to see audit data or to configure the auditing system, you must pass the access controls on the audit trails, either by having NDS access rights or by having the correct audit password. See Controlling Access to Online Audit Data.
WARNING: See your client documentation for information on the availability of AUDITCON in your client evaluated configuration. Because auditors have access to the trusted computing base's audit data, you must run AUDITCON only on a trusted workstation.
When generating reports to the screen or formatting reports in files, AUDITCON creates temporary files in your current directory. For this reason, you should run AUDITCON only from a directory that is protected from access by unauthorized users.
The term current directory is used to indicate the drive and directory you were using when you started AUDITCON, whether that directory is on a client or server.
