Monitoring Event Log Via E-mail
I am interested in monitoring the event logs from one of my clients who has
about 12 XP PRO sp1 and sp2 computers. What I would like to do is have an E-mail automatically sent to me when anything other than an 'information' type event is recorded in these logs. Is this possible without installing commercial software? Thank you in advance. -- Allan C.

You would need a third-party application, such as:

Allan,
I think this is possible using Scripting / WMI. You may try the scripting newsgroups for this. Example: http://groups.google.co.in/group/mic... 01f615733a2e3 Microsoft Public Newsgroups: http://aumha.org/nntp.php -- Ramesh, Microsoft MVP Windows XP Shell/User http://windowsxp.mvps.org "Allan C." wrote in message ...

Thank you for the suggestion.
I think I might purchase a commercial program if I can not find a free version. -- Allan C. "Ramesh, MS-MVP" wrote: Allan, I think this is possible using Scripting / WMI.
