Does anyone have a solution for windows security logging?
Requirements:
I'd like to keep 6 months worth of basic security events for 2 domain controllers and do it for minimal cost.
Hurdles:
The maximum log file size on server 2003 is 4G.
"Event Viewer logs are memory mapped files. The maximum size of an event log is constrained by the amount of physical memory in the local computer and by the virtual memory that is available to the event log process. Increasing the log size beyond the amount of virtual memory that is available to Event Viewer does not increase the number of log entries that are maintained." <shudder>
Any ideas?
