Check out the Kiwi syslog at http://www.kiwi-enterprises.com
I run it here on a Win2K system and it works great. It has a customizable set of filters, you should be able to get it to log just about any combination of levels that you want. I don't know of any type of rulesets for determining how much space your log files will take up, but I can tell you I have 10 fairly chatty systems dumping events into it, and my log files average about 500KB a day. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 31, 2002 3:53 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: about a syslog server Hello all. I am researching the creation of a syslog server on a WinNT or Win2k platform. My goal is to enable 24/7 logging of 25+ Cisco routers (no servers). There is a mix of Internet and Intranet routers involved. I have 3 questions about this. First, is there a solid 3rd party syslog program that anyone can recommend for this? Second, is it true that by choosing to log level 4 (warning) issues that I will also automatically log levels 0 thru 3? Finally, is there a any documented baseline rule for determining how much disk space usage I can expect to accumulate per day? I have to find out what size drive I would need. This last question has been a tough one; I haven't been able to locate any documented formula for this. Thanks in advance for your help.
