Thanks Michael, 

I hear what  you are saying, but our domain controllers are all still 
Windows Server 2003. So I don't that that's the issue.

Christopher –
 
The format of event logs changes in Windows 2008 and this also included a 
change to the format of the basic Win32_NTLogEvent. A new field called 
“InsertionStrings” was added that contains data which is unique to a given 
event log entry. The reason for this is that it represents a significant 
optimization in the amount of space consumed by the average event log 
item. Database normalization, if that means anything to you.
 
Tools that deal with raw Win32_NTLogEvent records need to know how to deal 
with this.
 
(The only reason I know this is that I recently had to update one of my 
own tools for this change. It’s a simple change.)
 
Since EventReporter is now at version 12, if I were to guess, your version 
doesn’t know how to properly deal with this change. I’d be asking the 
question on the EventReporter forums or their support personnel.
 
Regards,
Michael B.

Nope, not using that one.
 
I use the free EvtSys 4.4.3

Thought I'd throw this out there one more time: 


We are using EvenReporter (10.1.344) as the syslog forwarder to get the 
windows security logs into our SIEM (Nitro). Anyone else using this? 
Problem is with resolving the SIDs and GUIDs on the domain controllers. 


Thanks
