RE: Empty Event Logs from Windows 2003 Server,Win32_NTLogEvent,WMI

Usually your app needs to be running under a domain user that has access
rights to Event Logs on other machines. This is the only way I have been able
to get it to work. It's a pain to setup if you are in a large company, but it
works the best.

Good Morning,

to ServerMachine(domain2).
Iam able to connect the Server Machine but iam unable to get any event log
data from that server machine.

Here i have two things
1 . From Server iam able to connect to my machine even log and get the
result
2: From my machine iam able to connect to the server but unable to read
the event log.

The Following is the code i have tried from my machine

Dim oConn As New ConnectionOptions
Dim Scope As ManagementScope
oConn.Username = "elog"
oConn.Password = "xxx"
oConn.Authority = "ntlmdomain:domain2 "
Scope = New ManagementScope("\\machineserver\root\cimv2", oConn)

Scope.Connect()

Dim Query As New ObjectQuery("SELECT * FROM Win32_NTLogEvent")

Dim searcher As ManagementObjectSearcher
searcher = New ManagementObjectSearcher(Scope, Query)

Dim queryCollection As ManagementObjectCollection
queryCollection = searcher.Get()

Dim insertionStrings As String()
Dim m As ManagementObject
Dim s As String
Dim message As String
For Each m In queryCollection
MsgBox(m("EventIdentifier"))
MsgBox(m("Message"))
MsgBox(m("Type"))
insertionStrings = m("InsertionStrings")
message = ""
For Each s In insertionStrings
message = message & s & vbCrLf
Next
MsgBox(message)
Next
Could you help me with the above

Thanks and Regards
Suresh
