Reading Event Logs With VB Net?
Nov 19, 2009I'm working on a program to read event log entries from several remote servers...its basically to automate some daily checks we doMy code works but is very slow as the event logs can have up to 60,000 entries in them.I only need to check the logs from the specified date but when i run this it appears to check from the oldest entry to the newest. does anyone know how to reverse the order it looks in? or to save the index it checked from yesterday to a file and only check newer entries next time it's run (obviously i know how to save a number to a file and read it back.. i just mean in terms of the eventlog API stuff!!!)
Dim elevent As New System.Diagnostics.EventLog("Application", currentserver)
Dim elEventEntry As System.Diagnostics.EventLogEntry
For Each elEventEntry In elevent.Entries

Asp.net - Use VB To Query Remote Server Event Logs?
Aug 27, 2009I am working on creating a web app that will query event logs on internal servers for events using a specific ID. Since most of the servers are running Windows Server 2003, I cannot use the preferred System.Diagnostics.Eventing.Reader method that I was hoping to use.
I've seen the mention of using WMI, but would like to avoid this if possible. I have dabbled with the System.Diagnostics class but cannot seem to get it working when running on a server. It is able, when testing locally, to query my event log, but displays nothing when put on the final server. There is no error that is displayed after the program is ran.
