Windows Syslog Agent

Check out DAD.  It is a pretty slick opensource log analysis tool for
Windows that competes with MS MOM.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/lassie/
It hasn't been updated in about a year but it is still fairly feature rich
and definitely worth a look.  It will read the event logs via a minimally
privileged user and parse them on the backend, so an agent on each machine
isn't necessary.  It dumps them all into a MySQL db which is
accessible/searchable via a PHP web interface.

Are there any free syslog agents for windows that will parse flat file
logs for things like DNS, DHCP, IIS (in addition to event logs) on
Windows?

Here are a couple of syslog agents that run on Windows.  Their exact
features might vary a bit from what you're asking for, but you might
find them useful.

 * Datagram syslog agent <http://www.syslogserver.com/syslogagent.html>
