How to increase size of security file size on all Windows 2003 servers?

Hello all, after enabling SUCCESSFUL & FAILURE audit events in my log on Windows 2003 terminal server, Windows 2003 domain controller, I realize that the log size will now increase exponentially. How do I increase maximum log size or at least manage the size?

This will help you with your issue. You can increase the size and allow overwrite as needed on aged events

You should set it as a group policy. Local Computer, Policies, Windows Settings, Security Settings, Event Log. Set the Maximum security log size and Retention method. I set this for all logs and apply to to the entire domain.
