    Hello,

    First let me say my Posh is very rudimentary and I am fairly new.

    I am trying to get all events on a list of servers and write them down on a CSV, so far I modify a bit a script I use for SQL commands from the dbatools.io module.

    $outfile = 'C:\out.csv'

GET-Content C:\Servers.txt | ForEach-Object {Get-EventLog -LogName System -Newest 10 -ComputerName $_ | Where-Object {$_.EventID -eq 50, 140} |
    But I am bit lost, can anyone point me what I am doing wrong.

    I strongly recommend taking the time to learn basic PowerShell.

    Get-Content C:\Servers.txt | 
    ForEach-Object {
        Get-WinEvent -FilterHashTable @{LogName='System';ID= 50, 140} -Newest 10 -ComputerName $_
    }

    Thanks was not aware of the use of WinEvent, just for others that come -Newest if not valid on this context -MaxEvents is.

    I sure do need to learn, thanks
