We want to email our helpdesk when a user has reached their Windows 2000 disk quota. I have set host monitor up to do this, however, the only indication of which user is at quota is in the "User" description of the event, which is not mailed over as part of %Reply% - only the Description field is. Can you include all of the variables, such as %EventDate%, %EventSource%, %EventTime%, %EventCategory%, %EventType%, %EventID%, %EventUser%, %EventComputer% etc?

In our case, %EventUser% would be the one we would want -

Thanks,
Greg

Still no %NTEventUser% variable - can this be added?

Greg

--------------
following variables have sense for "NT Event Log" test only, they represent parameters of the last "Bad" event detected:
%NTEventSource% Event source. Identifies the software that logged the event
%NTEventComp% Name of the computer where the event occurred
%NTEventTime% Time of the event
%NTEventType% Type of the event
%NTEventID% Event identifier
%NTEventText% Event description

As I understand "User Name: User1" and "Workstation Name: \USER1" are parts of event description. For any program (and for HostMonitor as well) description is just text message. So, HostMonitor cannot separate these strings from the message.

hi

I noticed that you supplied a link to v3.57

but 'officially' you are only deploying v3.56 on your downloads page.

Are there any other changes in 3.57 other than the NTeventuser feature?

thanks!
