Hi,
I have a few Windows 2003 servers. I would like to run a program that would automatically backup all event logs (application,security etc)to a specfic location. I'm not a programmer at all. Is there freeware or somewhere on the internet a program that would accomplish this? Any help would be appreciated. Thank You in advance.
