Hi, thanks for the walkthrough, but what do you do if your smtp server requires authentication / ssl?

Perhaps this is too old but I am also wondering how to dynamically attach the $(eventdetails).

I have found a few threads on editing the XML and reimporting but so far no joy.

I use a product called IPSentry for this. It allows you send the details from the event logs in the email. I use for a few things but one is account lockouts. I can see what account locked out and what machine locked it out.

Dave, As you might know, there are a lot of third party and Microsoft “tools” available to perform these tasks. My goal was to provide a solution using “native” options.

If you are look for a real time monitoring tool, review Microsoft SCOM - http://www.microsoft.com/systemcenter/en/us/operations-manager/om-overview.aspx

i need to run a script automatically when i see a low disk space alert.. please help

If you get an event alert in the event log, you can use "Attach Task" option. Otherwise you need to create a script to monitor the disk space.

I have installed one application in windows server 2008 R2. I want to have email alerts for that application if it generates error by event. Can I configure the customer event for that application

Thank you very much for sharing this tutorial, guys! Well done!
