The concern is that the former admin modified permissions to allow his user
account access to files that normally only an administrator would have
access to.  I was hoping that there might be an application that can look at
the files on a server and give me a permissions review/report so I can look
for any irregularities.  I'm not looking to track or change any passwords.

You aren't likely to find a single tool that handles both functions.

You can track passwords:

I'm not aware of any tools to handle auditing of attribute changes outside
of the generic Auditing.

Servers: NT4 sp6a, strict NT4 domain

Have two situations which might be handled by the same utility.  I am
looking for some software that might help me out.

1) Have the rare situation where an administrators account has been taken
away from them but they haven't left.  Management is naturally concerned
that said admin might have given his user account file by file access on
some servers.  Any software suggestions on what I can use to examine servers
for traces of his user account?

2) Have a server (NT4 sp6a) which admins have reported to me has had large
blocks of files become read-only.  I've been told this has happened a
"couple of times" over "the past couple of weeks".  I know I could kick up
the auditing another notch on this server but I'm sure there has to be
something out there that would let me monitor security/attribute changes a
little more, um, elegantly.  Suggestions anyone?
