Names Disappear from Name List in Directory Auditing Window

• Microsoft Windows NT Server versions 3.5, 3.51, and 4.0

SYMPTOMS

In the File Auditing or Directory Auditing window of File Manager, a list of users or groups is added to the Name window. One or more items in the Events to Audit window are selected for success or failure. When you click OK, security is applied to the selected objects and the Auditing window closes. Upon reentering the Auditing window, only one or some of the users or groups on the Names list are retained. The rest have disappeared from the list.

CAUSE

Each name entered on the Names list must be selected individually, and one or more events to be audited must be selected for that entry. Repeat this procedure for each listed name. Names for which no events have been selected will disappear when you click the OK button to exit the Directory Auditing window. This is expected behavior.

RESOLUTION

Select each name in the Name window individually and select at least one event to audit for success or failure.
