Hi

I have a VB program called Consview.

You connect a PC with a Y cable to the console, which allows this PC to eavesdrop on the console.

I then filter the strings I wish to capture. I can also have the display flash for urgent messages.

For System Abort type of messages, I can send a page if you have a SMTP mail server available.

All of the collected messages can be copied to a NT web server and a CGI program can display these

messages.

I will try to submit these programs to Interex but I may not make it in time for the August show.

Ray
