A brief way to browse Windows 2003 system logs

Windows log files record every detail of the Windows system and play a vital role in the stable operation of Windows. By looking at the Windows logs in the server, administrators can find out why the server is down.

Under normal circumstances, the network management is to view the log records locally. Since the current LAN size is relatively large, it is impossible for the network management to stay at the server every day. Once away from the server, the network management

will be difficult to understand the operation of the server system in a timely manner, and maintenance work will be affected. Now, using the Web access interface function provided by Windows Server 2003 (referred to as Windows 2003) can solve this problem, allowing the network administrator to remotely view the log records of Windows 2003 servers.

Remote viewing of Windows 2003 server logging is very simple. In the remote client (Windows 98/2000/XP/2003 system can be used), run IE browser, enter "https://Win2003 server IP address: 8098" in the address bar, such as "https://192.168.0.1 :8098". Enter the administrator's username and password in the login dialog box that is displayed, and click the OK button to log in to the web access interface management interface. Then click the "Maintenance" link in the "Welcome" interface, switch to the "Maintenance" management page, and then click the "Log" link to enter the log management page. In the log management page, administrators can view, download, or clear Windows 2003 server logs.

The log management page lists all log categories of the Windows 2003 server, such as application logs, security logs, system logs, and web management logs.

Viewing a certain kind of log record is very simple. For example, by viewing the Web management record, the author clicks the “Web Management Log” link to enter the log view page. In the log file list box, select to check

Look at the log file, then click on the "View Log" button on the right to view the details in the Web Management Log.

Clearing a log file is also very simple. After selecting the log file, click the "Clear" button. If you feel that remote viewing of the log is inconvenient and you want to view it on your local machine, you can download the log file to your local hard drive. Select a log file, then click the "Download Log" button, click the "Save" button in the pop-up "File Download" dialog box and specify the storage path.
