Hi Guys,

I'm struggling to get windows events logged. I'm using ZenPack MicrosoftWindows 2.1 and
WindowsRM. I know with WMI you had to turn this feature on and set the level of logging.

Is this the case with WindowsRM or have I got an issue

Thanks,

Matt

According to a comment on ZenPack this doesn't actually work. Not sure if anyone can confirm
