Hi.
the Account Management audit in AD picks up a set of useful
stuff but AFAIK it is mainly handled through the SAM logic in
AD. Enabling the audit will not help for ADAM, I guess this
stems from ADAM schema not having a default user class and
a less rich concept of group and ADAM having it's own (pseudo) SAM
logic.
Assuming that you have a user class in your schema then
as a test you could try adding two ACEs to the SACL at
the partition head or suitable child node:
Trustee: Everyone
Access Mask: Write Property, Create Child, Delete
ACE Flags: Inherit (checked), Success, Failure
Object type: group - class
and the same again but with
Object type: user - class
In the security policy of the server that has the ADAM instance you must
enable
Audit directory service access, just as you would for Audit account
management
etc.,

Thanks, I think that answers my question, however, I need to get the same
type of output I get from enabling Account Management in AD (all creates,
modifies and deletes on user/group objects). So, it's apparent this is
not
like AD in that I cannot just check an audit account management success
box
and have it work. Is there an "everyone" group or counterpart in ADAM
that
I could set auditing for at the top of the tree in order to catch similar
output?
Thanks!

Hi
audit is possible in ADAM SP1 but it's fairly coarse-grained.
The tool to use is the security editor in the version of ldp.exe that
comes with ADAM SP1.
Right-click a tree node ->Advanced -> Security Descriptor
check the SACL box, click OK. Click in the SACL pane to add
SACL. The windows (ADAM administrator) account you use to
create/modify SACL must have Manage auditing and security log
rights.
This tool is very low level so if SACL or the SACL ACE
setting do no mean much to you then careful study and testing are in
order.
In the security policy on the ADAM instance you will need to enable
Directroy Service audit.
The key to audit of all objects is inheritance, *however* auditing
success on all objects for everyone is going to be very noisy and may
well hurt performance in production and so is not recommended.
Reading around the practices for AD audit should give you some
pointers and then it's a case of deciding what's most important
for your audit e.g. only child object creation.

Is there anyway to enable object access auditing (or account
management)
on
an ADAM partition, which would encompass ALL objects in the partition.
For example, if anyone changes a User or Group account in an ADAM
partition
it would record a success audit event in the Security log stating who
did
it,
etc.
In the ADAM FAQ there is a sample script but it seems to only set
auditing
on a single object, whereas I'm looking for a way to do all user/group
objects such that new objects being created would also trigger an entry
in
the log.
Thanks
