Re: [logs] To integrate Windows 2003 servers with our central sysloginfrastructure

I would say that you looked at the right product. I've been using the
EventReporter syslog agent for years without any problems. Personally, I
wouldn't mix the web servers logs with the syslog ones, especially if the
web log file are large. You can configure some scripts to ftp the web logs
to the central logging server. However, if your really want to, I guess you
can push them to the syslog server using the MonitorWare agent or by
scripting some syslog forwarder utilities. How do you plan to analyze the
centralized logs?
