ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for remote network access logging and reporting intercepts an access request at a client system on a network and sends log data identifying the access request to a log server on the network. According to one embodiment, the client system receives an access list from the log server and compares the access request to the access list. In this embodiment, access to the host system is allowed only if the request does not conflict with the access list. According to another embodiment, the client system receives an access list from the log server and compares the access request to the access list. In this embodiment, the log data is sent to the log server only if the request conflicts with the access list.
