Has everyone gotten so lazy that they must Automate everything? All one
needs to do to resolve this issue is write a filter to look through the logs
daily for access to the specific folders. I would hope that it is already
part of your daily tasks to review the logs. If you must automate you could
use MOM.

Subject: monitoring acess to servers

Hi Great list members !! 
 
I was hired to by an owner of a company, he gave me a task, he wants to
monitor access to few folders on few file servers (windows) he has there
some confidential information, the things gets a bite complicated couse he
wants to monitor also and be alerted if the sys admins access the folders so
Im looking for a solution (product/software??) that will read the logs of a
server and export it say to a remote server where the admins dont have
access to and also will send a mail to the owner of the company if someone
access a specific folder in that server. the process should work so that the
sys admins cant modify those logs, I know its problematic but I must find a
solution, and also I can come with a solution that cost 1 million dollar
couse the owner wont implement a thing. also any insights about that kind of
a project are most welcomed ( gaps, how long it takes to implement, etc). 
 
also I talked to the sys admins in the site, there are not against this kind
of project, they want to be monitored so if a problem happens they say that
the logs will tell that they didnt were the guys that coused the problem. 
 
thanks for your help!! 

Juan
