Hello!
I want to parse the ntds.evt Logfile on a Windows 2003 Server, for "System" "DNS" e.g. this is working.
Does anyone know how the "Eventlog Category" for NTDS (File NTDS.Evt) is called?
This is not working it "defaults" to "Application" Log ... Here part of the script: 

 
use Win32::EventLog;
open (EL,">eventlog.txt");
$handle=Win32::EventLog->new("NTDS", $ENV{ComputerName})
        or die "Can't open Application EventLog\n";

...

Thanks
MH
