Audit File Access

[Jennifer Mar]

Hi,

I would like to audit who is access our files, both the success and
failures. We are running windows 2000 server that is a domain controller
with active directory. I have tried to turn on auditing by going to:
Domain Level, Default Domain Policy, Computer
Configuration, Windows Settings, Security Settings, Local Policies - Audit
Policy and checking off success and failure. then I go to the folder that I
want to audit and adjust the audit tab.who's name do I put in that tab? the
name of the person who I'd like to see if they are access the file or not?
