If I remember from a previous post your network connection is only 3Mbps, I
would look you your network bandwidth utilisation rather than SA.
How heavily is this link used?
Is this 3Mbps in both directions? If not you might find that upload speed is
strangling you ability to communicate over the link if is is maxing out.
Do you have the facility to gurantee yourself bandwidth to and from local and
remote ip's?

Thanks for the feedback. A subsequent check did work, although it took 54
seconds - I wonder if my running it manually conflicted with another remote
test. I have seen failures of remote file checks (e.g. FileProperties COM) if I
am already connected to that machine - it may have a limit on remote
connections, or drops connection if another one starts.

I check a remote system with many more than 209 entries.

Most of our testing was done towards a remote system, so we're sure that is does

Even after reducing the size to 64K, with only 209 events, it takes 39
seconds, then I receive the error: Object variable or With block variable
not set. This limits the usability of this COM check for me.
Is anyone else successfully using the EventLog COM check against a remote
system?

We have had to make our event logs large because an attack can fill up the
log with invalid login attempts.
However, I saved the log to file, reduced the size, then cleared it. The
next attempt was *successful* - Initial check: setting values. So I guess
there is a practical upper limit to the event log sizes, and if we need to
save historical data, then we'll have to export and clear periodically.

16M is size is HUGE.
The API that is used is very slow. If you look at the eventlog via the
MS
tools
it's NOT loading all entries, only part of it.

Subject: [SA-list] Eventlog COM check error
ERR: COM Check problem (W00000012,122, 350):Object variable or With

I have checked this thread:
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg10077.html but
could
not
see any resolutions there. My specs:
Servers Alive 5.1.1967 running as service, no terminal services.
Windows 2000 Server SP4 checking event log on remote Windows 2003
Server
Web
Edition
External COM's Eventlog Check setup (version 2.0 build 59):

Logfile: System
Source: EventLog
Category:
Event ID: 6008
User:
Use Authentication: checked, and username has server\username and
password
fields
Type: Error is checked
Return: All matching entries
Eventlog COM checks on the local network work fine. I have opened all
ports
137-139 TCP/UDP for access by the SAlive server
If I put an incorrect username or password, the error changes to:
External COM check (W00000012,122):ERR: Unable to connect to host.(
7)
so I believe the connection information is correct - I can even see
increased network activity on the remote server.
Any other ideas?
