Subject: RE: Auditing proof of password change
The admin password change should show in the Security Eventlog.
David this is from Windows 2008 Auditing guidelines,
Recommended Setting: Success and Failure (DC’s and Member Servers)
Notes: This security policy setting determines whether the
operating system generates audit events when the following user account
management tasks are performed:
· A user account is created, changed, deleted, renamed, disabled,
enabled, locked out, or unlocked.
· A user account password is set or changed.
· Security identifier (SID) history is added to a user account.
· The Directory Services Restore Mode password is set.
· Permissions on accounts that are members of administrators
groups are changed.
· Credential Manager Credentials are backed up or restored.
· This policy setting is essential for tracking events that
involve provisioning and managing user accounts.

Subject: Auditing proof of password change
I have an audit request to prove that we change administrative passwords
on a periodic basis. Surely some of you have to do this on occasion and if
so, how do you go about it? Event log reporting?
