Audit Log Viewer dialog box
The Audit Log Viewer dialog box lists the security-related events that have happened on one server since the last time the log was cleared.
Each entry in the list shows the:
- Type of event.
- Date and time it took place.
- Host machine where it took place.
- Brief description.
The Audit Log must be manually enabled through the Monitor tab of the Server Administration dialog box. Otherwise, logging does not take place.
Each log entry reports an event. Each entry has one of these icons that indicates the event type:
- A blue icon indicates an Info
or Login Success entry.
An Info entry reports a normal event such as the establishment of a connection between a client and a server, or the retrieval of data from a security-related file.
A Login Success entry reports a successful log-in by any user.
- An blue icon with an arrow indicates a log entry containing logged message content.
- A yellow icon indicates a non-critical Warning entry. A Warning entry reports variations in log-in attempts, such as a privilege denial.
- A red icon indicates an Error entry. An Error entry reports a serious problem, such as an attempt to breach security by an unauthorized user.
The Audit Server records the viewing activities of SMAT messages and records the activities of resent messages.
