When I first put together wpkg, I had a need for this. However, after
about 10 minutes of thought I realized this was just the wrong place for
it. There are tools out there, right now, commercial and free, for
aggregating windows NT event logs. There is ntsyslog, which forwards all
event logs to a syslog server. There's a lot of really nice commercial
ones.
These have other benefits, such as seeing more than wpkg. Wpkg, imo,
should use the Windows-sanctified logging mechanism, and the event log
API is it.
As I can recall, one of the latest Samba releases has a tool for
checking event logs? But maybe I'm confusing with something else.
Anyway, this server side logging (>>\\server\logs\machine.log) has
certainly one advantage: (WPKG) logs are always available, even if the
workstations are off, without setting anything additional on workstations.
