Jason I know that the SNARE Epilog Client has the ability to take text based log files and convert them to syslog. DHCP is not one of the pre-defined log types, but there is a generic option which you might be able to get to work. We looked into this as an option, but never tested, when we were looking at SIM solutions. In the end our vendor of choice, Q1labs, has a proprietary client which provides this functionality. http://www.intersectalliance.com/projects/EpilogWindows/index.html Hope this helps Jim Beechey Information Security Manager Northwood University 4000 Whiting Drive Midland, MI 48640 989-837-4169 beechey () northwood edu www.northwood.edu "Developing the future leaders of a global, free-enterprise society." -----Original Message----- From: Youngquist, Jason R.

What I'd like to be able to do is send the DHCP messages to a Linux syslog server so I can have a historical record of which machine had a particular IP address at a given time. The DHCP events aren't stored in the Windows Event Viewer. I did a little googling, and couldn't find much. I'm open to any suggestions on how to accomplish this. Thanks.
