Jon & Keith,
Just installed and added Pro license. I am unclear how to get to (monitor) remote logs; e.g. Microsoft-Windows-FailoverClustering-Manager/Admin or any of the MS Windows App & Service logs.
For the application to be of any use it would need to be able to do this and be easy to setup?

This doesn't work - the only logs that show are: Application, HardwareEvents, Internet Exp, KMS, Security, System and WPS.
It does not show the "Microsoft" sub-folder entry point under Applications and Services Logs section. Just look in a Event Viewer mmc. So not sure how to get to it.

Keith,
Just so you know it doesn't show for local connections either.

Any time frame for this getting fixed?

Keith - I am guessing that you haven't moved on this even with the new beta; if so that is disappointing?

Excellent - I will more thoroughly test now.

Keith,
So the next thing is to allow the enumeration or the log channels when you click Get Logs in the remote connection dialog.
Maybe this dialog needs a little redesign?

Sorry, I was too quick on the draw I missed the specific link in the initial dialog.

Jon,
Doesn't seem to be working properly at least from a UI design perspective.
First thing - it seems to need a username and password in this dialog - why won't it connect with current credentials? If you assume you don't need the credentials because your current ones are what you need and click get logs or ok you get local logs returned. In most other net apps I use I don't explicitly need to specify credentials unless I want to use different ones. Couldn't you rework this dialog so that the default was current credentials and the with radio button toggle to text boxes for different? Also maybe you need to disable the OK button until you have clicked Get Logs?
Also if I connect correctly and then go to a log entry I can't view any details of the entry; am I doing something wrong?

Jon,
p.s. this "Also if I connect correctly and then go to a log entry I can't view any details of the entry; am I doing something wrong?" is for the Channel logs. Is this because they don't use "Message" field rather General\Details?
