Auditing the Network

Introduction

Auditing the Network is for administrative staff (auditors, supervisors, administrators, and operators) of NetWare^® servers. It is not intended for non-administrative network users.

The purpose of this manual is to

• Show individual auditors, acting independently of network supervisors and others, how to audit network event transactions.
• Show auditors how to audit Novell Directory Services^TM (NDS^TM ) events and events specific to a volume's file system or server.

Auditing the Network replaces Auditing NetWork Events of the NetWare 4 Supervisão da Rede manual. It describes procedures for

• Controlling access to audit data
