[SoCoSA/discuss] syslog questions

[Sean]

I haven't seen traffic on the list in awhile so I hope you all don't mind.

I'm trying to set up my first rsyslog server on Debian Lenny, and I'm
a bit confused by what I'm seeing on a Windows client.

I only have one Linux server so I only have Windows systems to test
clients on. I installed Syslog for Windows
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/syslog-win32/) on one XP PC to send
logs to the server. I can sends logs to my Debian server using the
included test.exe file, but I see no entries in the log on the server
when I reboot the PC or cause logs to be entered in the Application or
System logs on XP.

If anyone has done this, could I be missing something on the Windows
box? Will it only sent critical messages? The new Windows syslog
service is started and set to automatic.


Thank you!

Sean
