Syslserve

Introduction

Syslserve is a simple syslog server for windows. By default syslserve applies log rotation, daily compression of the logfiles. A entry consists of the time of the computer where syslserve runs, the source ip and the incoming message (unmodified). The time column is often redundant because the incoming message contains the time also. But it occurs to often that the router doesn't have the correct time settings or is using an different time server than other routers in the network. The source ip is ofcourse helpfull too identify the router where the syslog messages are coming from.
