I asked this a while ago and didn't get a response.

Just thought I'd give it one more try for those of you who may not have read
the post but may know the answer.

Does anyone know of any software (freeware or commercial) that will allow me
to audit my 2k servers. By audit, I mean log file access (to a specified
set of files), who accessed it, when they accessed it etc. That kind of
stuff.

Now before anyone says it, I know 2k server will do auditing, but from
experience the entries it creates in the event log are horrendous to make
sense of as it makes about 20 entried per file access - creating huge
unmanageable logs.

Thanks
