Installation of evtsys 4.4 on Windows Server 2008 R2 64bit fails

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Using 64bit Version of evtsys
2. Copying evtsys.exe and evtsys.dll to C:\Windows\System32
3. executing command "evtsys -i -h <IP-address>"

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Instead of installing, i get the following:
C:\Windows\System32>evtsys -i -h <IP>
Checking ignore file...
Jan 14 17:51:45 ATVIESV051 Error opening file: evtsys.cfg: The system cannot 
find the file specified.

I tried to manually create the evtsys.cfg file, but also did not help:

Checking ignore file...

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Any help would be appreciated...

I just figured out the problem myself. I had to run "cmd" explicitly as 
Adminstrator (although I was logged on with an Admin account anyway).
Maybe this info is useful for someone else, too.

Sry 4 the inconvenience.

Greetz,

Yes that is one of the wonders of the new UAC. I'm glad you were able to solve 
it. I really should add an FAQ to the readme file.

did you type in the command by hand or copy and paste it from a document?

Also, I notice it says 32-bit, are you running this on a 32-bit system?
