I'm unable to activate audit on a Windows 2000 server
which is a domain member.

Audit policies are "Not defined" on the domain level. No
GPO defined except the default ones.

So I go to "Local Security Settings" and activate all the
events, then run

secedit /refreshpolicy machine_policy

The final view is shown on the attached picture.

Then I try to enable audit on a folder and it says

"The current Audit Policy for this computer does not have
auditing turned on. If this computer gets ... bla-bla "

and describes the procedure I performed above.

There is no audit messages in the Security log at all.

OS: Windows 2000 SP2, situated behind a firewall on a DMZ.
