Log shared folder activity?

Asked by wthero in Windows 2003 Server, Windows XP Operating System, Microsoft Windows Operating Systems

Tags: Microsoft, Windows Server Standard, 2003

What would be the best way to log data for files in a shared directory (and sub-directories) on a server?  The type of information needed would be something like this:
- File accessed
- By whom the file was accessed
- Date/Time opened
- Date/Time closed (if possible)
- Date/Time file saved

Everything is a must except the date/time the file was closed, as I believe that cannot be tracked via the network.  Is there a way to do this in Windows Server already, or must we purchase some sort of third-party software?  We're looking to go as cheaply as possible.Start Free Trial
