When Advanced Audit Policy Configuration settings are used, the "Audit" Force audit policy subcategory settings (Windows Vista or later) to override audit policy category settings" policy setting under Local Policies \Security Options must also be enabled.
and have Enabled it in the GPO.
gpresult /scope:computer /r says the GPO has been applied.
And, I see that this one rerquired setting above is grayed out and Enabled. That's what I might expect.
But the remaining settings in Advanced Audit Policy Configuration \ System Audit Policies - Local Group Policy Object are NOT set.
That's puzzling.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Just for reference, if there's a better way, all I really want to do is to "reasonably" replace the following script with a GPO:
kevinhsieh: Well, I did create a new GPO for this. But before I can test it, the "Link an existing GPO" menu item on the OU right click menu is missing.
The reason it was missing was only because of the View mode selected. I'm not sure how it got that way but it's resolved now.
Anyway, I've gotten past this. There's a new GPO.
It appears that gpedit.msc does NOT reflect the actual settings. And, that's where I've been looking.
But, command line auditpol DOES it seems and I can see the settings that have been made.
