  • 1.  Convert ersecreg-l.log to xml

    Posted May 29, 2015 12:55 PM

    We have a ton of entries in our ersecreg-1.log and extracting IP addresses is cumbersome.

    Any ideas on how to convert the .log file to .xml? I'm googling, but not finding anything substantial.

    You can drop this straight into excel as is and filter that way. I had to do this same thing in the past. I assume you're looking for duplicate HWIDs?

    You can also convert a CSV to XML. There are a few free sites out there that will do it.

    Brian,

     

     

    I tried the site, it returned gobbly gook. :-(

     

    We're not looking for DUPhwid, but categorizing computers that are unable to check-in.

     

    It seems we'll have to do this for a period of days, so I was looking for simple way to 

    1. convert the file to xml

    2. read the info

    You might be able to pull it off with powershell
