logging windows text-based files to central logging server

[Michael Bayne <baynema () JMU EDU>]

We have a number of windows applications logging to text-based log files
(IIS, apache, app servers, etc).  We'd like to get these logs off of the
windows servers and onto our central syslog server and CS-MARS device in
a (near) real-time manner. So far, I haven't been able to find a tool to
do this reliably.  Intersect Alliance's Epilog Agent for Windows is the
best I've seen so far, but I've found it prevents log rotation.

So, I'm curious as to what you are doing.  Are you logging these
text-based logs to a central location (syslog or otherwise)?  What tools
are you using to do so?

Thanks.
