is there a smaple to create syslog server on Windows.

I am a new bie of Python. I knew there is module for syslog of Linux,
but I want to create a syslog server on the windows server like windows
2k or 2k3, to collect the log message sent from our firewall. Any one
has any idea about this? Many thanks.

WIndows has a syslog server. It's called the Windows Event Log. No need
to build a whole new one. *grin*

Now... if you just want an app that listens on a log port and sends
it's message to the Event Log, then I can't help you but to suggest
that a *nix knowledgable programmer may help you write one.

Actually, I've considered writing such a thing myself -- just haven't
had the time. Maybe googling for a syslog to EventLog service might
turn something up.

Sorry I'm not more help,

LL

Has anybody seen this tool? It is awesome. check out http://vw.vermeer.org/ . It's a php front end for large-scale syslog deployments. It makes managing syslog in large networks a snap. The idea is to fifo pipe network syslog into a MySQL database backend. The php scripts reference the database, and print stuff to the screen. My Info -> RH9.0 , MySQL 4.0.14, apache1.3.28 I have successfully gotten everything installed, compiled, etc....

Hi again The Question of Logs, part II. :) What are the advantages/disadvantages of using syslog() to do the logging rather than writing the logs with fopen(), fwrite() and fclose()? What should be kept in mind while using either technique? And, of course, which is considered to be the better one? TIA

--=-vqiBeaRpc7WKjfgJmDzK Content-Type: text/plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Is there now a way within MySQL to log to syslog? I was reading an archived email conversation between Sinisa Milivojevic and Vincent Stoessel in which they seemed to indicate that there was no need to log to syslog. As Vincent only had a request for timestamps in the error log, Sinisa simply satisfied that demand and moved on. =20

Hello, I'm having what seems to be a deadlock in syslog with the code (wich comes from a project I'm working on, but I've reduced the test case to its minimum) I put at the end of this messsage. It must be compiled with -lpthread. (so the fork could be also a possible cause of what I'm mentionning). The "bug" does not occur every times. So you should maybe launch the prog a few times before the block occurs.

Greetings, I have a 23GB data table upon which I am building a primary key of three columns. The data is mounted in a 137GB device and pg_xlog is mounted on a separate 3.5GB device. I have configured 24 checkpoint segments, which I expect gives me a worst-case usage in pg_xlog of 384MB. Unfortunately, during the CREATE INDEX, pg_xlog becomes full!

Hello. I am needing some advice. I need to build a syslog server that writes to a sql backend. I am concerned about the server not being able to handle multiple requests. For example on an enterprise network, I may need to handle a large number of requests. I assume a thread pool will be needed but I'm wondering what other advice some of you might have? Thanks in advance.

Hello, On a server with DB2 v. 8.2, db2diag.log ran full, it seems (i.e. reached a size of 2GB). And it seems that in this case, DB2 started using syslog instead. I would actually like DB2 to use syslog instead of / in addition to the local log files, not only in case of a problem with the local log files. Is that possible?
