Reports to show which GPO being applied
Please consider adding reports to show policies being applied so we can trace down to know if a particular policy is causing issues or if a newly created policy is working as expected.
Custom Alert Messages: Duplicate Options for Selection
When customizing the alert message for an alert to include fields from the alert itself, certain options are duplicated. For example: See for example, user name is duplicated. Selecting one or the 'username' options results in the alert message not containing the user name whilst selecting another one result sin it being included! Very frustrating!
Report question - no data in custom report
Hello - may I ask hot it is possible that my custom report about files being created shows no data, while the one from the file audit reports (either files created or all file or folder changes) is showing some data. In custom I am trying to choose the same date like in file audit reports but still no luck...
Client IP Address / Machine name
Hello, when running file audit reports, I can see files deleted or modified but both columns "Client IP Address" and "Client Machine Name" are empty. I don't know what I need to configure to retrieve that information from the fileserver. Could be something to do with the audit policy? Where should I look? Thank you!! Hernan
Can't add Technicians
I have just installed the 4.6.0 version with Build number 4681 and I am having trouble creating Technicians. Whenever I click on either the View Roles or Add Technician button on the Admin tab, nothing happens. I'm running this on a Windows 2012 R2 server using IE 11. Any ideas as to what might be causing this?
Alert for change threshold
I'd like to setup a report in AD Audit to send an email anytime a user makes more than 1000 changes to any AD objects in 24 hours but cannot figure it out. I'd like to get an email of all the groups, users, computers, GPO, or other objects changed, and by whom if more than 1000 changes are made by that user in a 24 hour period. Is there an example of how to set this up?
Where is ADAUDIT main database located ?
Where is the ADAUDIT database (with all the fetched report) located and what kind of db it is? I assume it is running in the background, how can I connect to it to extract data without using web interface (lets say I want to connect to it through some script and fetch the data, the list of all tables etc - maybe schema is available that is used by ADAUDIT?).
Resolving ERR_SSL_WEAK_SERVER_EPHEMERAL_DH_KEY error in Chrome version 45
Hi, You will receive the error "ERR_SSL_WEAK_SERVER_EPHEMERAL_DH_KEY" when the server is trying to setup a secure connection due to a disastrous mis-configuration as the connection wouldn’t be secure. As of Chrome version 45, this error message is triggered if the SSL/TLS handshake attempts to use a public key smaller than 1024 bits. Please replace the cipher in the SSL connector to fix it. Please edit the Server.xml file from the "<Installation directory>\ManageEngine\ADAudit Plus\conf\" and add
Ability to copy report profiles
Would be very handy when creating many profiles.

Copying Report Profiles
I have 100 admin accounts that I need to create an alert on. I basically need to create an e-mail alert to send the user an e-mail when more that 10 failed logons for their admin account occurs in 30 mins. Each user has a normal account and an admin privileged account. The only way I can see to do this is to create a report profile for each user that contains all failed logon events filtered for that user. I can then create an alert profile based on that. Essentially the report profile is the same
Archiving and Restore - Effect on DB
I archive out all data after 7 days. This gets written to .csv file locally. When I wish to report on a period longer than the last 7 days I have to restore archives (which is a pain hence my request for a data warehouse for archiving). My question though is how does this affect the DB? Are the following true: When the daily arching task runs at 02:00, is all data older than 7 days removed from the DB and placed in .csv files? If so, when i do a restore and this data is added back into the DB, how
Reports based on groups filters to handle nested group membership
Reports that allow the use of group filters will only list objects that are explicitly listed in the group and cannot handle nested groups. this makes this type of filter limited in any mid to large sized environment where nested group would be used. Also leads to inaccurate reports as the UI does not indicate this anywhere,
How are reports based on Group Membership evaluated
Certain reports allows you to select a group instead of a user as the filter for that report. How exactly is this evaluated? is it in real-time i.e. check the current membership of that group in AD. Also, does it account for nested group memberships?

Setting a default reprting Period
I used to use this query after updates to the product to set a default reporting period: update audelement set default_input_value='onehour' where element_id =16 Seems like it does not work anymore. Can anyone form support comment?
Aggregate reports - some tables empty
Some of the tables in the Aggregate reports show "No Data Available", but when I navigate to that section under Reports, there is data. For example, in the default Aggregate Report I select "This Month" and the date shows August 01 - 20 11:59pm. The OU Management graph shows "No Data Available". If I click the Reports tab, then go to OU Management > Recently Modified OUs (or Extended Attribute Changes), there is data there from 8/5. It is likewise for the Logon Events tab; I can only get anything
Weird user name
I have configured file auditing and on the report few times I have Accessed by - (username) equal to '-'. What user is this? Maybe some kind of bug?
Temp Sublfolder growing
under the Auditplus installation directory there is a folder called Temp. Therein seems to lie over 200,000 logs files. Can someone answer: What are the purpose of these files? Why does the application keep them indefinitely? Can they be cleared down?
Can not Run ADAudit Plus as Service
I keep getting this error on a Windows 7 64-bit machine when I try to run ADAudit Plus as Service: The ManageEngine ADAudit Plus service terminated with service-specific error %%-1. Any ideas how to fix? Thank you
Archiving with a MS SQL Server DB
We have a large amount of audit data (1 week might result in 100 GB of live SQL data). We archive everything every 7 days. However, this seems to archive everything out to .zip files and remove it form the DB. Our IT security team regularly run reports over periods of weeks. The UI allows you to select any period back in time even if it goes past your archiving cut off of 7 days. this leads to misleading reports as the security team think there were no events for a particular user due to the report
Folder Deletion on NetApp CIFS Share Report
Is it possible to create a report showing all folders deleted on a NetApp CIFS share?
TLS Issue collecting from NetApp Filer
All of a sudden, even though the collections against my NetApp filers seems to be working and showing as 'Success' in the UI, I notice the raw event data is not present. Looking int the logs i see this message: retHash for FILER is{ERROR_CODE=12, ERROR_MESSAGE=Error while generating evt file :Connection has been shutdown: javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: Server chose unsupported or disabled protocol: SSLv3, ReadEvtFileTime=0, RecordNumber=475, My AuditPlus web site is using an internal CA signed
File Monitor - Outbreak Report
Im wondering if its possible to create a report in ADAudit Plus that will send an alert or report if a single user modifies a large number of files in a short period of time. This would be the type of information that would be useful in the event of a virus outbreak. The infected machines ( with CryptoLocker for example ) would be making many changes to files, from a single user, very rapidly which would trigger the alert.
Auditing Read/Write of Large Files
Is there any way to have ADAudit send alerts out if a large file (eg >500MB) is read or written? I have a situation where people are dropping full uncompressed dvd files to our shared drives and then wonder why they won't stream over an adsl line, so I'd like an alert when a file gets written and I can go discuss alternate ways to distribute the videos. My shared drives are all on NetApp CIFS, and ADAudit works well for other monitoring like mass deletions/etc.
Error while adding member servers
This morning I tried adding several new servers to the Member Servers, but I received this error: Successfully configured the Member Server(s) and Error while enabling audit policy via GPO (The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process - Error Code:20 The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process - Error Code:20 Unspecified error - Error Code:80004005 ) I have tried restarting the AdAudit service but the error persists.

View SQL or arbitary Reports
I would like to be able to view the underlying SQL of an arbitrary report. Would make it easier to create custom SQL queries and understand the schema.
Add Dynamic Reporting Periods for 'Year to Date'
Would be great to be able to select a reporting period of 'Year to Date' that would run from the first day of the year to the current date. Same goes for Current Month etc.
Set a Default Reporting Period
Most reports seem to have a default reporting period of 24 hr resulting in a long rendering time for environments like mine with a lot of audit data. Ideally, within the UI, you should be able to set the default period to any time period (built in or custom) either globally or per report.
Disable Ciphers in ADAuditPlus
How can I disable weak ciphers in ADAudit Plus? I've seen several posts in this forum on other products but not on ADAudit Plus. Thanks in advance!
Moved and deleted reports
Hi all, Apologies if this seems obvious but I am relatively new to AD Audit plus. I am trying to track down what happened to a lot of files that have disappeared. When running a server based report for both files deleted and files moved I get the same results. Does this mean they have simply been deleted? The moved files report is simply because they have been moved but never actually placed elsewhere? I haven't found any records to say the files have been created elsewhere. Thanks for any help.
ADAudit plus in Real Time?
Hi I am deploying ADAudit Plus for t he first time, just wondering if people are collecting events in Real Time or scheduled, and if there is any discernable performance issues if running in Real Time? Thanks,

I am new to ManageEngine so I don't know if I am posting in the right place. I want to create an alert if user is locked out, send alert emails to me.
Auditing Folder Access
I am reviewing ADAudit Plus as a potential purchase to address some auditing and compliance concerns. I was trying to set up auditing of specific folder access and could not seem to get this working. I contacted ManageEngine support and explained the problem and what I was trying to achieve but was told that the system could not do that. Surely with a system that advertises itself as being compliance monitoring capable that can't be the case. Is the ability to report on access to specific (security

can I trace the ip of a failed administrator login
We are testing the audit manager and set an email alert to trigger when the administrator logs on to any machine and the password fails. The alert does work but can we get more information like the IP address of where the log in is coming from if not from the local machine but say from an RDP or other type of connection.? We are getting this alert trigger to a new domain server we are setting up and we are currently not logging in, :)
