NXLog CE 3.0.2272 - im_systemd
I have enabled the im_systemd module now included in the community version and i have noticed that every time the nxlog service is started, a huge amount of data is sent. I have configured an output to log these data in file and i get 20M of data every at each restart. Has anyone ever encountered this behaviour ?

om_azuremonitor output module resolve URI through DNS
The objective is to configure the Nxlog to send logs to Sentinel LAW. The output module used is om_azuremonitor. The DCE URI directive depends on DNS resolution to resolve the url to ip. We added entry in the local /etc/hosts filleBut nslookup on the URI fails.Any inputs how the DNS can be resolved.There is no specific DNS server configured

Hi,I have the configuration below in which I would like to collect data from “Security" and from ”ForwardedEvents".I would like the data from the Security to be with specific values (e.g. $TaskValue, $Version) while ForwardedEvents ignore them. How can I configure it?

sending logs between 2 nxlog-ce
Hey i try to send logs in TCP from nxlog instance to another to make kind of a proxy so i can set the parse of logs from one place and easier time to configure TLS rather than in my syslog server. But i receive a “end of file” error when the tcp connection is trying to be made between the 2 nxlog-ce instances. So i think i might using the nxlog-ce in a way its not designed to, am i right? Thank you.

Sample "Sending emails with Python" not working in Windows
Hi, I am unable to run your basic example “Sending emails with Python”  because nxlog is unable to load the required module.Reducing the code to a minimal set, I found that nxlog is unable to load some basic Python modules that come bundled with the Python installation.Following are some modules that nxlog is unable to load:smtplibsocketsslemail.mime.textwindows_tools.users (after installing with "pip install windows_tools.users")Same file modified to be executed directly from python.exe in same machine, runs correctlynxlog.conf:Panic Soft #NoFreeOnExit TRUE define ROOT C:\Program Files\nxlog define CERTDIR %ROOT%\cert define CONFDIR %ROOT%\conf\nxlog.d define LOGDIR %ROOT%\data include %CONFDIR%\*.conf define LOGFILE %LOGDIR%\nxlog.log LogFile %LOGFILE% Moduledir %ROOT%\modules CacheDir %ROOT%\data Pidfile %ROOT%\data\nxlog.pid SpoolDir %ROOT%\data <Extension python> Module xm_python PythonCode 'c:\Program Files\nxlog\modules\extension\python\py\send_email.py' </Extension> <Input in> Module im_null </Input> <Output out> Module om_null </Output> <Processor myprocessor> Module pm_null <Exec> python_call('main'); </Exec> </Processor> <Route myroute> Path in => myprocessor => out </Route>send_email.py:import smtplib #import socket #import ssl #import email.mime.text pip install windows_tools.users #import windows_tools.users as users import json import nxlog #def main(): def main(event): # Body that does nothing print("Hello from Main()")nxlog.log:2023-12-28 11:45:26 ERROR Python ERROR: ImportError('DLL load failed while importing _socket: Impossibile trovare il modulo specificato.') 2023-12-28 11:45:26 ERROR #0 in <module> (...) at: C:\Program Files\Python310\Lib\socket.py:51; 2023-12-28 11:45:26 ERROR #1 in _call_with_frames_removed (...) at: <frozen importlib._bootstrap>:241; 2023-12-28 11:45:26 ERROR #2 in exec_module (...) at: <frozen importlib._bootstrap_external>:882; 2023-12-28 11:45:26 ERROR #3 in _load_unlocked (...) at: <frozen importlib._bootstrap>:685; 2023-12-28 11:45:26 ERROR #4 in _find_and_load_unlocked (...) at: <frozen importlib._bootstrap>:999; 2023-12-28 11:45:26 ERROR #5 in _find_and_load (...) at: <frozen importlib._bootstrap>:1025; 2023-12-28 11:45:26 ERROR #6 in <module> (...) at: C:\Program Files\Python310\Lib\smtplib.py:44; 2023-12-28 11:45:26 ERROR #7 in _call_with_frames_removed (...) at: <frozen importlib._bootstrap>:241; 2023-12-28 11:45:26 ERROR #8 in exec_module (...) at: <frozen importlib._bootstrap_external>:882; 2023-12-28 11:45:26 ERROR #9 in _load_unlocked (...) at: <frozen importlib._bootstrap>:685; 2023-12-28 11:45:26 ERROR #10 in _find_and_load_unlocked (...) at: <frozen importlib._bootstrap>:999; 2023-12-28 11:45:26 ERROR #11 in _find_and_load (...) at: <frozen importlib._bootstrap>:1025; 2023-12-28 11:45:26 ERROR #12 in <module> (...) at: C:\Program Files\nxlog\modules\extension\python\py\send_email.py:1; 2023-12-28 11:45:26 ERROR #13 in _call_with_frames_removed (...) at: <frozen importlib._bootstrap>:241; 2023-12-28 11:45:26 ERROR #14 in exec_module (...) at: <frozen importlib._bootstrap_external>:882; 2023-12-28 11:45:26 ERROR #15 in _load_unlocked (...) at: <frozen importlib._bootstrap>:685; 2023-12-28 11:45:26 ERROR #16 in _find_and_load_unlocked (...) at: <frozen importlib._bootstrap>:999; 2023-12-28 11:45:26 ERROR #17 in _find_and_load (...) at: <frozen importlib._bootstrap>:1025; 2023-12-28 11:45:26 ERROR Couldn't import python module 'send_email' 2023-12-28 11:45:26 INFO nxlog-ce-3.2.2329 started 2023-12-28 11:45:26 ERROR ### ASSERTION FAILED at line 503 in libnxpython.c/nx_python_init(): "conf->thread_state_key == NULL" ###The environment is:Windows Server 2022nxlog-ce-3.2.2329python-3.10.8-amd64.exe

drop action to forwarding logs to a remote server is not working
Good Afternoon Team.I have a nxlog service running on a windows server. It has input rule to collect syslog from several devices like this: <Input syslog514udp>Module im_udpPort 514Host 0.0.0.0<Exec> $raw_event =~ s/\r?\n/#012/g; parse_syslog_bsd();</Exec> </Input>  I am trying to forward the syslog of one specific device (10.10.10.10) to a public IP 190.20.30.40, but the filter is not working since nxlog is forwarding everything, configuration bellow: <Output OutNetomi>Exec if ($MessageSourceAddress == ‘10.10.10.10’) drop();Module  om_udpHost    190.20.30.40Port    514</Output> Do you know where the error is? Thank you.Diego.

Many files sending logs to a Rsyslog server
Hi all,I am currently using Nxlog CE v3.2.2329 in a Virtual Machine Windows 10 21H2 for sending logs to a Rsyslog server using Syslog RFC5424 version.For this configuration, i use im_msvistalog for input and om_tcp with Exec to_syslog_ietf(); command to send them to the rsyslog server.<Input Source_Eventlogs> Module im_msvistalog </Input> <Output Dest_LogServer> Module om_tcp Host 192.168.1.1 Port 514 Exec to_syslog_ietf(); </Output> <Route send> Path Source_Eventlogs => Dest_LogServer </Route>In the rsyslog server i receipt logs using a template who send logs to the right folder and then the right file log$template DynamicFile,"/var/log/rsyslog/%HOSTNAME%/%syslogseverity-text%.log" *.info -?DynamicFileI met a first issue with security logs who where sent to a folder using the IP address. I assumed the issue was due to a failed resolving name and after adding the Nxlog client name to the /etc/hosts file and it solved the first issue.I met a second issue with Eventlogs who create many folder in the rsyslog folder because the logs are sent without hostname.For example i receive logs in a folder name VMICTimeProvider and when i look to the notice.log file i can see that there is no hostnamecat VMICTimeProvider/notice.log 2023-07-22T09:18:39.022270+00:00. VMICTimeProvider (Local) 2023-07-23T09:40:51.040169+00:00. VMICTimeProvider (Local) 2023-07-24T08:03:51.264202+00:00. VMICTimeProvider (Local) i tried to correct the receipt in the rsyslog side with receipt conditions like if $fromhost-ip=='1.2.3.4' then { actions } . -?WindowsLogs $template WindowsLogs,"/var/log/rsyslog/Windows/Windows/log" But I have to do a line for any Windows collection in the file, and i think if i want to transfert the logs to another file server i will have the logs lines with missing hostname and i will met the same problem. Thank you for your help. Kind regards. Adrien

nxlog embedding carriage returns and newlines in IETF syslog
Hello, I am using nxlog-ce 3.2.2329 on a Windows 10 system to forward logs to a syslog-ng server over TCP using the to_syslog_ietf() procedure. This is working well for most logs, but I am occasionally seeing logs being generated with carriage returns and newlines in the syslog structured data element. Here is an example captured from tcpdump. Note that this is just the beginning of the message, enough to show you where the cr lf's are in the PrivilegeList element:<14>1 2023-10-18T16:23:21.669254-04:00 SteveAcer Microsoft-Windows-Security-Auditing 952 - [NXLOG@14506 Keywords="-9214364837600034816" EventType="AUDIT_SUCCESS" EventID="4672" ProviderGuid="{54849625-5478-4994-A5BA-3E3B0328C30D}" Version="0" Task="12548" OpcodeValue="0" RecordNumber="2053808" ActivityID="{FE9334EF-0152-0002-AD35-93FE5201DA01}" ThreadID="30200" Channel="Security" Category="Special Logon" Opcode="Info" SubjectUserSid="S-1-5-18" SubjectUserName="SYSTEM" SubjectDomainName="NT AUTHORITY" SubjectLogonId="0x3e7" PrivilegeList="SeAssignPrimaryTokenPrivilege SeTcbPrivilege SeSecurityPrivilege SeTakeOwnershipPrivilege SeDelegateSessionUserImpersonatePrivilege" EventReceivedTime="2023-10-18 16:23:23"The body of the message has cr lf's converted to spaces. In the documentation, I see reference to a ReplaceLineBreaks directive that defaults to converting the cr lfs to spaces, but that doesn't appear to apply to the syslog structured data. Is there a way I can remove these cr lfs from the PrivilegeList, or any element? My nxlog.conf is below:<Input eventlog> Module im_msvistalog </Input> <Output tcp> Module om_tcp Host 172.16.200.1 Exec to_syslog_ietf(); Port 514 </Output> <Route 1> Path eventlog => tcp </Route>Thanks,Steve

Hi All,I am collecting and sending logs from a Windows Domain Controller (only security events). When I start the nxlog service, it shows an error related to the integer function. The agent appears to continue working normally, and the error does not appear again (unless I restart the service). What could be the reason for this error?Configurationdefine ROOT C:\Program Files\nxlog define CERTDIR %ROOT%\cert define CONFDIR %ROOT%\conf define LOGDIR %ROOT%\data define LOGFILE %LOGDIR%\nxlog.log LogFile %LOGFILE% Moduledir %ROOT%\modules CacheDir %ROOT%\data Pidfile %ROOT%\data\nxlog.pid SpoolDir %ROOT%\data <Extension _json> Module xm_json </Extension> <Input windows_security_eventlog> Module im_msvistalog <QueryXML> <QueryList> <Query Id="0"> <Select Path="Security">*</Select> </Query> </QueryList> </QueryXML> ReadFromLast True SavePos True </Input> <Output out_chronicle_windevents> Module om_tcp Host 172.16.94.69 Port 41001 Exec $EventTime = integer($EventTime) / 1000; Exec $EventReceivedTime = integer($EventReceivedTime) / 1000; Exec to_json(); </Output> <Route r2> Path windows_security_eventlog => out_chronicle_windevents </Route> 2023-10-05 10:53:15 INFO nxlog-ce-3.2.2329 started 2023-10-05 10:53:15 INFO connecting to 172.16.94.69:41001 2023-10-05 10:53:15 ERROR assignment failed at line 30, character 56 in C:\Program Files\nxlog\conf\nxlog.conf. statement execution has been aborted; binary operation failed at line 30, character 56 in C:\Program Files\nxlog\conf\nxlog.conf. expression evaluation has been aborted; function 'integer' failed at line 30, character 48 in C:\Program Files\nxlog\conf\nxlog.conf. expression evaluation has been aborted; 'integer' type argument is invalid Environment descriptionNXLog CE is running on Windows 2022 server Package version is 3.2.2329
