James,

you should do this through the at command in a command prompt.  Through the GUI 
you're required to submit a user. this is no requirement for the at command.

syntax :
C:\>at 21:31 cmd.exe

This is not a 'real hack' since you already need sysadmin rights to perform 
this action.

All other forensics@securityfocus.com subscribers, please tweak your 
OOO-settings, because getting the "I'm not here", "I left the company and will
not return before 2099", "I won the lottery so I'm outta here" message 
50+ times in under 10 seconds is no fun at all !

This question relates to the post immediately below.  When the cmd.exe task 
is running it shows to be running as the administrator in the task manager.  
Is that incorrect, it is actually running as SYSTEM?

you can gain SYSTEM privileges by scheduling cmd.exe as administrator. When 
the app starts it runs under SYSTEM. This was shown to me by MS support when
I had some GPO stuff where one of my admins took to many righs away.  When
running cmd.exe scheduled, from there you can start mmc or any other app, 
that app will run under the same privileges. It allowed me to reset 
privileges on the GPO stuff and see them again on a normal MMC.

I vaguely remember something about a DLT system in w2k.
It tracks the files for indexing purposes and creates a hidden log file.

I dragged this off the MS site:

"The DLT Client service monitors activity on NTFS volumes and stores
maintenance information in a file called Tracking.log, which is located in a
hidden folder called System Volume Information at the root of each volume.
This folder is protected by permissions that allow only the system to have
access to it. The folder is also used by other Windows services, such as
Indexing Service."

If you could log in as system you may glean something from there.

Did you check the recent items to look for a reference to the file on the
thumb drive?

All I could think of on a Sunday morning.

Hello!

I'm try to show that files were copied and/or moved off a W2K drive
onto a USB stick. Obviously the registry and setupapi files show the
USB installation info - but I can't find the log file (or other
method?) that Windows must use to track files being moved and copied.

I don't have the USB device - which would make this a whole lot easier.

Any ideas would be great.

Thanks.

George
