Chapter 17, page 514, of the "Windows NT 3.51 System Guide" and the online help incorrectly state the following:

For the Security log, the administrator can also set auditing policies in User Manager that cause the system to halt when the security log is full.


This is a documentation error in Windows NT 3.5 and 3.51. To cause the system to halt when the security log is full you must manually configure the registry. The procedure for this is located on page 197 of the Windows NT Resource Kit Version 3.51 Update book.
