Seriously, if you have more than just UNIX syslog logging needs, just 
doing a syslog server via Cygwin isn't going to get you very far.
  
Right. you need something that will export Windows Event viewer "events" to syslog messages that can be shipped to a local (Cygwin) or remote (linux) syslog server.

Cygwin to the rescue!

Looks like there is a recent tarball there dated 1/14/08.

    Howdy,

    We have a mixed UNIX and Microsoft Windows environment. We would
    like to centralize logging for all servers (and hopefully SNMP) on
    one server. However, there is only one UNIX admin (me) with a few
    servers for a small group and four Windows admins handling many
    servers for the entire network, so it makes more sense to use a
    Windows server for keeping these logs.

    Does anyone know or use a good open source application for
    centralized logging that runs on (*gasp*) Windows?

    It would be great if syslog-ng ran on Windows, but it does not. :(
     There is a forwarding agent for syslog-ng that runs on Windows, but
    that does not fit our requirements.

    Thanks,
    John Hebert
