    Hi CPians! Just in case this is a programming question, don't beat me to hard, but I don't know where to ask/post/write it else... so please be kind :rose: I do have a public folder on an windows 2000 pro machine in our companies network, in which somebody created a folder an copied useless (not really worksafe, not really :mad:) stuff into. Is there a logfile or possibility to find out who was it, at least he/she left a note in the publicfolder with greetings and ??? ... :mad::mad::mad: I just wanna find out who that was... :mad::mad::mad: Thanks, Olli!

      It's not full proof, but: Right click the file, select properties, see the security tab. The way our system is setup all but one entry is a group. The user entry is the person who created the file. Like I said, it isn't full proof as it depends on how your system is set up - so it may not accurately show who did it.

        So you are angry that someone tried to frame you by putting those stuff in your folder?:~

              To take Colin's point a bit further - click the Security tab. Than click on Advanced... and select the 'Owner' tab. This tells you who owns the file, which may well be the same person who copied it there...

                This is why I always restrict permissions (including read) on any shared folders. Elaine :rose: The tigress is here :-D

                  Not sure you can do that unless you are auditing logon events, this a domain or local account? Ryan

                      Delete/move the questionable files. Ask the owner of this folder (e.g., sys admin) to restrict access to just you and your team. Now unless this person is on your team, the questionable files should not reappear.
