is there a smaple to create syslog server on Windows.

[liujixuan]

I am a new bie of Python. I knew there is module for syslog of Linux,
but I want to create a syslog server on the windows server like windows
2k or 2k3, to collect the log message sent from our firewall. Any one
has any idea about this? Many thanks.

WIndows has a syslog server. It's called the Windows Event Log. No need
to build a whole new one. *grin*

Now... if you just want an app that listens on a log port and sends
it's message to the Event Log, then I can't help you but to suggest
that a *nix knowledgable programmer may help you write one.

Actually, I've considered writing such a thing myself -- just haven't
had the time. Maybe googling for a syslog to EventLog service might
turn something up.

Sorry I'm not more help,
