Hi
i would like to give access to some users to be able to view the event logs on the server. is there any possible ways i would do without granting so much of permissions but just to view the logs.
If you have any idea please let me know. Much appreciate your thought :)
cheers KB

Looks like i have a domain issue.
Iam trying to connect from the production domain to the test doamin to view the event logs.
With in the test domain i can connect to another test server to view the logs with out any problem. Now i just have to figure out how to get the two domain to talk to each other in this case.
If you have ideas let me know. Thanks
Cheers

This one may help but I'd probably start a new thread for this issue.
