Summary

The Permissions tab on the Audit Trail 8 Reporting configuration site allows you to limit what users can generate audit reports. The web page expects the existence of an Active Directory listing. If the machine running Audit Trail 8 is not part of an Active Directory, you will receive an error stating "Current security context is not associated with an Active Directory domain or forest" when you load the Permissions tab on the configuration page. You can manually edit the Audit Trail 8 Config.xml file to specify a machine user.

Resolution

Manually edit the Config.xml file and add the Repository, Allow, and Trustee child elements along with the necessary attributes within the UserPermissions element. The Config.xml file can be found in the installation folder for Audit Trail 8.

Please see the following example:

<UserPermissions>
  <Repository Name="MyLFRepository" Server="MyLFServer">
    <Allow>
      <Trustee DomainName="WebServerMachineName" TrusteeName="UserName" isUser="True" isDisabled="False" />
    </Allow>
    <Deny>
    </Deny>
  </Repository>
</UserPermissions>

You must restart the Audit Trail Reporting service after editing the Config.xml file.
