This is the installation of Windows 2008R2 Enterprise Edition 64 bits. Installed like
Windows Server 2008.
VMware Tools have been installed on the system.

I want the event viewer to forward all event viewer events to syslog:
C:\Users\administrator>cd c:\windows\system32
c:\Windows\System32>evtsys -i -h 10.10.5.14 <acceptance Syslog>

Command completed successfully
Now, go into your services.msc and start the service.
Windows Server 2008 comes by default without a telnet client which is a no go in my opinion.
I used these steps to add the telnet client to Windows Server 2008 active features:
Open Server Manager by clicking Start ? 'Server Manager'
Click on 'features' from the left panel in Server Manager
Click on 'Add Features'
From the available list of features select 'Telnet Client' and click 'Next'
Click on 'Install'
Click 'Close'
I disabled the Windows Firewall and disabled Internet Explorer Enhanced Security.
I added the server to the domain.
I added the Role Remote Desktop Session Host and Remote Desktop Licensing.
Users that are member of Remote Desktop Users are allowed to log on.
I ran Windows Update and installed all updates available.
