Can anyone share experience/configs for nxlog community edition to forward security and authentication events from RHEL 7.x servers ?

We have installed nxlog community edition on Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 7.6. We included auth.conf but are not seeing any auth messages forwarded. I'm not understanding why Rsyslog is required since Rsyslog is capable for forwarding events by itself. Please share configs and experiences getting security and auth messages to forward.

Hello,

You haven't mentioned what logs you want to collect and what's the actual problem.

Also, providing your config file might help with helping.
