I have some info on how I did it here: <A href="http://www.techadre.com/content/addon-nagios-event-log">http://www.techadre.com/content/addon-nagios-event-log</A><BR>
<BR>
Using NagEventLog on the windows boxes with an NSCA service on my Nagios server.<BR>
<BR>
It works great in our environemnts... of course we all know how noisy a windows event log can be, but we have all errors reported and just excluded a bunch of EventIDs we don't need to worry about chirping.<BR><BR>-- <BR>Mat W. - <A href="http://www.techadre.com/">http://www.techadre.com</A><BR><BR><BR> <BR>
