Can someone suggest a good tool i can use to dump event (especially security)
log information from our DC (only one at this time) to a file (text, csv,
etc..) so i can import that information in to a Database.

Thanks

Thanks. I read about the tool. It says it's for Windows NT, will it work for
Win. 2000 server logs and Windows server 2003 logs.

Thanks

Thanks Steven, i read about the tools. The first one from foundstone says its
for windows NT and IIS. Will it work with Windows 2000 server logs and
Windows server 2003 logs ?

Also, how can we know what data the event log contains ? Like for example
when i were to use dumpel to export the event logs to database, th enumber of
columns coming were not consistent all the time.

So i thought i should start at the root. First knowing what data the event
log contains? Like for example there might be a standard like for a any give
event the event log contains "X" pieces of data!.

Thanks

I have not tried Ntlast myself but have used PdLogList, though I have never
imported into a spreadsheet or such. I bet that Ntlast would work for
W2K/W2003. I suggest you test each one out to see if they suit your needs or
not. I wish I could give more advice but have not used it that
extensively. --- Steve
