Cygwin to the rescue!

Looks like there is a recent tarball there dated 1/14/08.

Howdy,

We have a mixed UNIX and Microsoft Windows environment. We would like to centralize logging for all servers (and hopefully SNMP) on one server. However, there is only one UNIX admin (me) with a few servers for a small group and four Windows admins handling many servers for the entire network, so it makes more sense to use a Windows server for keeping these logs.


Does anyone know or use a good open source application for centralized logging that runs on (*gasp*) Windows?

It would be great if syslog-ng ran on Windows, but it does not. :(  There is a forwarding agent for syslog-ng that runs on Windows, but that does not fit our requirements.


Thanks,
