Isn't the log supposed to clear itself automatically after a period of time
or number of entries? If not, can I set something up to automatically save
and clear? Thanks

Thanks for putting my mind at ease. I saw a post from lanwench that
said sometimes to the effect that the event logs can drive you crazy.
I am starting to see what she means.
Set a filter and unselect 'information', 'success' and things you aren't so
concerned with. It makes a quick read of an event log ( You can reenable
later if you need to see all the events). Also saving and clearing the log
every month or so makes life much easier.

So a normal security log will have 150,000 entries over a five day
period? We have seven users and about ten devices.

I have read past threads about the event ID #538,540, and 576
being normal log in and log out processes, but I am seeing these
postings every minute of every hour. It would seem that at 2am
at night we shouldn't have this activity because no one is here
and no one is logging in remotely. My log has over 150,000
entries over a five day period. This can't be normal can it? I
am also seeing event ID #624 with the following:
