  I prefer SL4NT.  It can be found at http://www.netal.com/

  It's got a *ton* of features in it.  I have it set to email me if it sees
specific strings or regular expressions.  In additions, if it sees a certain
number of PING packets which exceeds a threshold I set in a specific amount
of time, then I have it email me also.  This was invaluable during the
Welchia outbreaks with remote users dialing in.  I also like it's ability to
send output to a telnet viewer so I can watch specific data scroll past in
real time as I troubleshoot a problem.

Dear List,

i have cisco pix firewall that is sending it log data to a cisco syslog
server (windowsxp workstation).
it is working fine with me since it is a service, so i willl be sure that it
is running whenever the server is up and running.

But i have two questions concerning this syslog:
1 - the log files are too big since everyfile contains the whole day logs,
and since the file size is about 400 + Mb, i am not able to open it. kindly,
is there any third party utility which i can use to manage (open, check,
filter, ....) the log files of the cisco syslog?

2 - is there any other syslog server which could work with the cisco pix
firewalls, and which is a service and NOT an application?

your fast respond is highly appreciated,

with regards,
Hilal
