Abstract: Method and system for configuring a network computer to distinguish between a first address path for a first logging module and a second address path for a second logging module for a log report, using full distinguished names (FDNs) that provide first and second address paths for the first and second logging modules, where the first and second address paths have different object level addresses at an object level immediately below the root level. Where a local distinguished name (LDN) (or relative distinguished name RDN) is used for an address path, the system forwards a log report to an associated Log Server only if the first component of the address path is a selected object level address, such as ‘/system’.

Abstract: A method of and system for control of access to add an event notification as a log record in a computer system. Each potential log record is associated with one or more logs, each of which has one or more log owners. Grant of access to add a log record to the information in a particular log is restricted to the owner(s) of that log. A list of owners of a log can be changed from time to time, based upon present circumstances or the presence of special conditions.
