How do I setup the syslog server?

How do I setup the orion syslog server and configure all my servers to forward event logs to orion? Is there a training video out there somewhere? I also want to have scheduled reports based on the event logs, specifically logon and logoff times by end users. thanks.

You will need to configure your systems to send Syslog messages to the Orion Server on port 514. Once Syslog is configured on your Systems, the Syslog messages will be viewable in the Syslog Viewer application on the Orion Server, and on the Orion Website in the Syslog and Message Center pages. You can create a Scheduled Report to send an Email of any webpage.

You can use a agent like Snare on the servers in question.

Here is a link to Snare Download:
