issue forwarding

Hi everyone,

I’ve configured an Windows EventLog collection server and setup a handful of custom eventlog channels per the following article.
https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/russellt/2016/05/18/creating-custom-windows-event-forwarding-logs/

My custom event log channels are receiving the correct logs, and everything is working as expected as far as event collection goes.

I'm now trying to configure nxlog to pick up the event logs from my custom channels and forward them to a syslog server, but it doesn’t seem to be working.
nxlog does forward if I query the built in "Security" channel, but not from my custom channels (or even "forwarded events).

Any ideas?
Bryan

 

Here is a copy of my NXlog configuration file:

define ROOT C:\Program Files (x86)\nxlog
define ROOT_STRING C:\Program Files (x86)\nxlog
define CERTDIR %ROOT%\cert

Moduledir %ROOT%\modules
CacheDir %ROOT%\data
Pidfile %ROOT%\data\nxlog.pid
SpoolDir %ROOT%\data
LogFile %ROOT%\data\nxlog.log

<Extension _syslog>
  Module xm_syslog
</Extension>

<Extension json>
  Module xm_json
</Extension>

#<Input eventlog>
#  Module im_msvistalog
#  SavePos TRUE
#  #Query <QueryList><Query Id="0"><Select Path="_ApplicationServers">*</Select></Query></QueryList>
#  #Exec $EventReceivedTime = integer($EventReceivedTime) / 1000000; to_json();
#  Exec $Message = to_json();
#</Input>

<Input eventlog>
    Module  im_msvistalog

            <Query Id="0">\

            </Query>\
            </QueryList>
    </Input>
