Not tried it out myself, but if you do "subinacl /?" there's a switch "/audit" ... perhaps that does what you're after?

Re: XP Enable audits via bat file

im not sure,
with that, how would i list the file names and on which events to audit.
i dont need if for every event, just certain failed events.
im really at a lost on how to use subinacl, its not very clear to me
any help?
thanks
