Windows Server services auditing
Hi, I was wondering if it's possible to audit domain joined hosts for changes in services status, like when a service has stopped or if startup type has changed. Thanks,

Dave Patrick Hi maybe I wasn't specific, what I meant was that we want to audit the service state using windows event log.
For an example if host A had his service state changed from running to stopped then it will generate an event id 7035/7036 on the windows event log on the Windows Server.

You can follow along here to build a custom event log filter.
