Has anyone had success forwarding events from the Security log? I was able
to get the Application & System logs working as expected using the machine
account, but nothing from the Security log will work. I'm trying to pull DS
Access Changes events from all Domain Controllers running Server 2008 R2 in
a single forest AD domain to a Server 2008 R2 member server. I've also
tried running the subscription as a Domain Admin for testing, but I receive
the same error:

Code (0x138C): <f:ProviderFault provider="Event Forwarding Plugin"
path="%systemroot%\system32\wevtfwd.dll"
xmlns:f="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wbem/wsman/1/wsmanfault"><t:ProviderError
xmlns:t="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wbem/wsman/1/windows/EventLog">Windows
Event Forward plugin can't read any event from the query since the query
returns no active channel. Please check channels in the query and make sure
they exist and you have access to them.</t:ProviderError></f:ProviderFault>

Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

I was actually able to get this going by restarting the source computers.
Apparently, this step is necessary after adding NETWORK SERVICE to the
builtin Event Log Readers group.
