<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>I recently started evaluating tools to convert Windows Event Viewer
messages to SysLog and I'm looking for opinions on the different ones and what
to look for.<br>
<br>
I first started with EvtSys and it worked pretty well but it left out the
hostname so it was hard to make server specific swatch statements. <br>
I then tried </span></font><font size=2><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>ntsyslog
which shared the same problem.<br>
<br>
I'm now trying Snare (thanks Kevin for the tip) and it looks a lot more
flexible as to what type of events get sent and it sends the hostname as well.
When I first installed it, it worked fine and send messages.. After fiddling
with it, it stopped working correctly. I'm going to start working with it
again, but I'd like to here what else people are using. <br>
<br>
The 2 things the tool should have are:<br>
be free and transmit the Hostname.<br>
<br>
thanks,<br>
