[osiris] Setting up syslog

I have had some issues setting up Osiris using Windows as the management server and events. I was having all sorts of trouble getting events to correctly be sent to the Kiwi Syslog server. I ended up having to create a custom .dll file for osiris so it would properly report events in windows and then get sent to the syslog server.

Here is the scenario:

- Windows log server running Kiwi Syslog.
- Osiris management server running Windows.
- A bunch of windows servers (SQL, IIS, etc.) running Snare.

I had so much trouble I documented in detail so others could repeat it.

Keep in mind that on windows, not all osiris events and logs are sent to the windows event log.

You will need to either enable e-mail alerts, read the logs from the osiris directory, or use a linux server host.

Hi Gary.

Have you found a solution for your problem?
We are also working to become PCI compliant and have the same
problems as you had. We don't get the changes of the agents reported
into the syslogs of the management host, only the status reports of
Osiris (scan started etc.). We also tried to send emails, but they
don't come through, even the testmails.

I'd appreciate any help or hint.
