You can use the W2K Resource Kit utility dumpel to dump the event logs to/from a remote server. The log server will a smb share for the W2K box to dump to as well as proper permissions. Schedule a batch file to run as you would like. The file should look a little like this:
dumpel -f <unc path to share on linux box>\<filename> -s <servername to get log from> -l <event log name: application,security,system> i.e., dumpel \\linuxshare\ntsrvsec.txt -s ntserv -l security All the files are dumped in text format instead of the evt format. There are a few more sitches. John > I'm in the process of migrating all the servers in my company over to Linux and centralizing logs is easy amongst those. My problem is I will have, for some time, a single Windows 2000 server (terminal services use) remaining and want to also take in it's log messages. Is there a way to do this natively in Windows 2000? If not, are there any Windows apps. that allow for this? > > Thanks in advance! > > Stuart -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
