Default Log server

Hi All

As per our company policy we need to store all the logs likes in Application, system logs in win2k3 server, my cisco firewall logs etc on periodical basis.

Is there any mechanism, to collect all the logs from various sources and storing in a readable format.

Can anyone tell me what is the best possible method to store all these logs, and how corporates managing it.

Regards
Sakthi

You can setup a central log server and force router, Linux and Windows box to log all data to central server.

See : Logging to a centralized loghost from Router or other hosts

For windows use a software: SourceForge.net: NTsyslog
