Saving a copy of a remote NT event log

[Pieter Claerhout]

It does indeed, and it works like this:

    import win32evtlog

    evtLogSys = win32evtlog.OpenEventLog('pclaerhout', 'system')
    win32evtlog.BackupEventLog(evtLogSys, 'c:\\system.evt')
    win32evtlog.CloseEventLog(evtLogSys)

Kind regards,


Pieter

Im fairly sure the win32evtlog module will do this for you.  Check the
docs.
