    ##### Tip Description

     

    By default, unlike with ODBC database audit logging, the Policy Server does not log all audit data fields when in text file mode.

    To ensure that all data fields are logged while in text file mode, manually add the "Enable Enhance Tracing" registry key and set its value to one.

    To disable "Enable Enhance Tracing", set its value to zero (the default).

     

     

    ##### Provided Steps

     

    Configure more Audit data to be logged to a text file

     

    1) Logon to the Policy Server host

    2) Open the Siteminder Registry

     

    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Netegrity\Siteminder\CurrentVersion\Report

     

    3) Manually add the following registry key:

     

    TYPE = DWORD

    Value Name = Enable Enhance Tracing

    Value Data = 1

    Base = Decimal

     

    4) You will need to restart the Policy Server in order to enable the changes to the registry
