Security event log parsing


Recommended Posts

I have a Bank client where the examiners have requested that the security

event log be dumped, printed and reviewed daily for events showing user

login and logout events. They have only one domain controller.

 

Event ID's 538 and 540 appear to be the events I would like to filter.

However, There are many events from the system user that I would like to

exclude using these event ID's.

 

I've looked at PSLogList from the PSTools suite but I don't find a switch to

exclude the events from the system user.

 

Any easy options?

Re: Security event log parsing

 

This syntax does not filter out filter out events from user "NT

Authority\System". I want to parse out events created by non-user accounts.

Re: Security event log parsing

 

ok i didn't understand your problem, sorry.

 

You may turn to vbscript to achieve this (or even powershell)
