Remote Access to Event Viewer with minimum permissions

[jose.calado]

I have a group of users that require read access to all Event Viewer
logs, for both W2K and W2K3 servers, without using Administration
privileges. I can access the logs of my W2K server but I'm unable to
do it with the W2K3 servers.

If I add the users to the "Manage auditing and security log" in the
W2K3 target server I manage to access its security log, but I still
can't access the Application and the System log.

I was wondering if I can use the Delegation Control Wizard to provide
the read access to the logs, but I can't figure what object represents
the Event Viewer.

I have read the KB323076 article (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/
323076) but i would like to use a GPO instead of changing the
registry...

Thanks in advance

I forgot to mention that I want to remotely access Event Viewer from a
Win XP computer
