Also another Kiwi syslog user here, works great for us. For our NT/2000 servers, we use a piece of freeware called Snare. It converts NT event log entries to syslog format in real-time and then forwards it on to a syslog server, as well as some other cool things. http://www.intersectalliance.com/projects/index.html -----Original Message----- From: Ing.

This is not as simple as retaining a file because the firewall does not create a file (it has no hard drive). The firewall is equipped to export (stream) the log data to a computer (by IP address), but the Windows machine, without additional software, has no concept what this incoming data stream is or what to do with it. I understand that Linux comes with log management software... but I want to use a Windows machine; so, the question is: Do you know of any good but free or cheap log management software that will run on a Windows machine?
