5.10.3. Logging domain update errors

If the domain settings are not downloaded to a domain host, the syslog-ng Agent (starting from version 3.0.6) can create a logfile to debug why the domain settings are not updated on the client. Complete the following steps:

Procedure 5.10.3.1. 

  1. On the client host select Start > Run > regedit.

  2. Set the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Balabit/syslog-ng Agent/GpoDbgLog key to 2.

  3. Select Start > Run > gpupdate, and a the %systemroot%\system32\syslog_gpext.txt file will be created.

  4. After solving the problem, delete the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Balabit/syslog-ng Agent/GpoDbgLog key from the registry, otherwise the %systemroot%\system32\syslog_gpext.txt file will grow every time when the domain settings of the client are updated.
