Marten04-01-04, 05:35 AMsomethingI have read a lots of Windows 2003 whitepapers etc about auditing but I still dont understand the difference between Account Management AM) and DS Access (DSA). I have done some tests showing that sometimes I receive events from AM and sometimes from DSA.
For an example, in Users and Computers, fail to reset password, AM alert in event viewer. Fail to rename a user account, DSA alert me in event viewer??

actions associated with them while DSA should be able to record access to all AD
objects similar to auditing of files/folders. -- Steve
