Is it possible to have syslog messages forwarded as snmp traps? Say for
example I want forward a syslog message from a cisco box into SL4nt then
send it is as snmp trap into a network management tool. Can this be done, if
so how?
Thanks

Richard,

there's no built-in support in SL4NT v2.1 for sending SNMP traps but you
could use any tool which runs at the command line, by using a "Run Program"
action.

One solution would be to use our Freeware product "System Scripting
Runtime", which provides an ActiveX object for generating SNMP traps. You
would have to write a small WSH script for using this object and then
specify this WSH script as the command to execute in the "Run Program
action".

My answer comes a bit late , it's my first visit to this group.

I have a solution for this if SL4NT runs on WIN2K. There is a tool in
WIN2K called Event to Trap Translator (evntwin.exe ) wich monitor the Event
Log and generate traps on specific events.

So you can configure SL4NT to Log the syslog message in the Windows Event
Log and then evntwin
to generate a trap to your network management tool.
