<h1>phpLogCon - Documentation</h1>
<p>The <b><a href="http://www.phplogcon.com/">phpLogCon</a>
project provides an easy to use but powerful front end for
searching, reviewing and analyzing network event data, including
syslog, windows event log and many other event sources.</b>
It focusses on the user-interface side of this project, so the
data itself needs to be gathered by another program,
for example the stock syslogd,
<a href="http://www.rsyslog.com">rsyslog</a> (often the distro's default syslogd),
<a href="http://www.winsyslog.com">WinSyslog</a> or
<a href="http://www.mwagent.com">MonitorWare Agent</a>.
PhpLogCon works equally well on Linux and
Windows. It is a free, GPLed open source application written mostly in php.
Data can be obtained from databases but also from plain text files, for
example those that are written by the syslgod.
