After some more hunting around, IIS as it comes with XP pro by default logs to ascii text files (in w3c format). There is an option to log to that nice multilingual database format, but its not the default. Now I ask you, why couldn't this have been an option for the event log? Is there any chance that the perl module can be set up as a plugin of some sort to log the events to a text file? > -----Original Message----- > From: Steve Wray [mailto:steve.wrayat_private] > Sent: Wednesday, 6 March 2002 9:51 a.m. > To: Desai, Ashish; dgillettat_private; > loganalysisat_private > Subject: RE: [logs] About Windows NT/2000 logs > > > > From: Desai, Ashish [mailto:Ashish.Desaiat_private] > > > > The reason they are set up that way (pointer indirection to > > actual DLL/EXE) > > is because NT is multilingual ready and the eventvwr needs the > ability to > > display the message in the language > (german,french,yiddish,,kanji,etc ) in > > which > > the user is comfortable with.
