Good syslog server for Windows [closed]

I've been trying to find a "good" syslog server to provide centralized application login for a distributed system we've built. Our application logging system can not only log to files but also to a syslog server and we would like to utilize this feature. The following would be nice:

Runs as a Windows service
Has a reasonably good viewing/searching (via web display ideal)
Is open source, free, or low cost

There are numerous solutions available on Linux/Unix, but few for Windows.

Solution 1:

Have you tried Kiwi Syslog Server? I used it for quite a while before I started sending everything to a CentOS box... I'll confess to being a year out of date, but at the time the free version suited my needs.

Solution 2:

Splunk is free for under 500M of logs per day. It'll cover Windows and Linux and provide you with a very good web interface.

Solution 3:

Not sure if it falls under your definition of low cost, but I think it does provide a lot of bang for the money. Look into Microsoft System Center Operations Manager

Solution 4:

Try this application:

It's web-based
Stores everyting to SQL Server 2005 Express Edition (use the advanced vers. for generating reports)
It's free, (But send the guy some bucks)

C# code for Syslog server is available there; uses SQL Server at backend...very robust/light and scalable...Have been using it for quite some time with no problem what so ever! Best part; source is very neatly written and you can learn some network programming!
