RE: sending alerts by email / active response Win2K system [RMC-J7FLJI4]

Christopher, Anyone, etc.

 

I'm trying the program now, but I still unable to get it to alert on
anything. What I am trying to do is alert on "Priority: 1" alerts only.
Maybe it's not possible to parse the actual alert and grab content and alert
on that content? Any hints as to how to accomplish this?

Ask and ye shall receive:  

    EventSentry Light - http://www.netikus.net/products_downloads.html 

I've not compared the functionality of EventSentry Light to the original
EventWatchNT, but I really liked EventWatchNT.  For a freeware Event Log
monitor, it just could not be beat (IMHO).  

I personally like the freeware version Kiwi Syslog Daemon, but
unfortunately, the filter/trigger e-mail functionality is only available in
the registered product.  (sigh...) 

 

Cheers!

Romulo, 

You will need something like Syslog Daemon and run the alerts through that.
It has an option of emailing on certain triggers. If you find a free tool
that works, please let us windows folks know. The alerts can be sent to the
Event Viewer, application log in Windows and if you can find something to
parse that file and alert, that would be great.
