RE: Syslog and Windows

Snare - Free and easy to setup

MonitorWare - small fee, but dependable and has ability to monitor flat
files

Lasso - Free and most scalable solution, doesn't require an agent on
every machine you wish to retrieve logs from.  Requires Domain Admin or
Local Admin privs to pull logs.

I have used both Snare and Monitorware extensively on thousands of
devices.  Sometimes Snare will have to be restarted, or it loses it's
place in the log and suddenly sends you the entire queue from the
beginning, but you get what you pay for :).  We are beginning to look
into Lasso more and more due to its agent-less design and ease of
deployment and maintenance.

Thanks,
