[ossec-list] Re: Is ossec reading my IIS logs?

[Steve West <stevewest15@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Rick,

Yes, all options under Logging Properties has been enabled. I don't see 
any mention of any of the iis virtual sites in ossec.log.

Here is a sample iis web site log entries:

#Software: Microsoft Internet Information Services 6.0
#Version: 1.0
#Date: 2007-06-15 17:07:13
#Fields: date time s-sitename s-computername s-ip cs-method cs-uri-stem 
cs-uri-query s-port cs-username c-ip cs-version cs(User-Agent) 
cs(Cookie) cs(Referer) cs-host sc-status sc-substatus sc-win32-status 
sc-bytes cs-bytes time-taken
2007-06-15 17:07:13 W3SVC1 SERVER55 xxx.xxx.xxx.222 GET 
/discover/discover.xml - 80 - xxx.xxx.xxx.198 HTTP/1.1 
Microsoft+Office/12.0+(Windows+NT+5.1;+Microsoft+Office+Outlook+12.0.6017;+Pro) 
- - autodiscover.somedomain.com 404 0 3 1830 243 375

thx,

SW
