PERSONAL NOTES
• Most enterprise Syslog consoliation servers, such as
those by Network Intelligence, support SNARE as their
integration syslog agent.
• So far, I favor the SysLog server from Kiwi-Enterprises.
Fast, robust and flexible...
• You can use NTSYSLOG to output your EventLogs from
multiple servers to a single SysLog server.
• "EventLog-to-Syslog" is very easy to setup, and while
not quite as flexible as NTSYSLOG, it works properly
with Windows 2003 Server. You have to recompile it if
you want it to only track Error and Warnings, instead
of capturing Information entries as well.
