Re: Windows 2003 Logging/Log Analysis Tool

I’m looking for recommendation on what are the better log analysis softwares around that’re capable of generating good logs for;

    * IIS 6.0
    * NetApp NetCache 5.x
    * Microsoft ISA RRAS
Are there also Log Agents available for System so that all the logs are contributed to a Centralized Log Server?

My favorite way to do this is just send it via syslog to a UNIX box, then use grep/perl/whatever to post-process it. If you use syslog-ng you can put the events into MySQL which opens some additional possibilities.

Best way to get windows logs (event logs, text based files, etc) is EventReporter (www.adiscon.de). It's cheap .. $30/license I think.
