Not beneficial at the moment. 

Also if success auditing is on, our 100MB logs would roll within a couple
hours tops. We have some 250,000 users and about 375 domain controllers
processing millions of authentications daily. We don't even really do much
with failed logons other than ocasionally chase worms/viruses/lockouts. If
we came up with a valid use for the successes and could successfully harvest
them to a centralized location we probably would; but we would need good
reason to go after it. 

Some people may go shame shame not watching for bad authentications for
hacking attempts but it is a horsepower thing. We would have to first pull
out the multiple bads that couldn't be attributed to bugs in Outlook or
PDA's or other poorly written apps then try to identify the security group
responsible for the userid in question which is a huge task in a
multinational multidivisional company all by itself. Then have to get them
to own up to chasing the machine and the user down. All something we would
like to do some day when everything else gets down to a dull roar. :o)

Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] How large are your security logs on your DC's?

Are you utilizing some alternate technique of tracking when users logon?  Or
do you feel that it's not beneficial enough to include?
