Good Morning All,We would need to take advantage of the new features within NXLOG 6.0 EE.  Are there any instructions on to perform the upgrade from 5.0 to 6.0?  OR is this a revamp oft he whole environment and re-deployment of the agents?  I currently have 900 agents deployed and it would not make sense to re-deploy.

Hello,we using Nomad which sends logs in GELF format. We need to forward it to Rsyslog and also to Graylog.

Hi So im a brand new user to NXLog,  and NXlog are refusing to offer me any support unless i pay for it, which i feel is a little unfair given i have literraly just purchased 8 Enterprise Editon licenses . However i have got a config file which im working with. So far i have two problems 1 - The resulting log file is empty2 - I am receiving the following errors2024-03-05 14:31:28 ERROR [im_maculs|uls] Could not get proc_info, skipping log @ 486802024-03-05 14:31:28 WARNING [im_maculs|uls] Avoided padding for log ending @ 0xBE39  I am not sure on the best course of action here, or wether i need to upload the actual config file, if anybody can offer any help or guidnace at all it would be greatly appreciated. More than happy to prove more info if it helps Thanks

HiI have configured compression and encryption for locally stored logs, and it seems to be working fine. However, when I run the command c:\program files\nxlog\nxlog-processor.exe -c d:\data\decrypted.conf, I encounter an error while attempting to decrypt the currently active file. The error message reads: 'error [im_file:enc_in] Crypto SSL error: error:0606506D:digital envelope routines:EVP_DecryptFinal_ex:wrong final block length.' Despite this error, the file is decrypted successfully, and we are able to read the log file clearly. Could you please advise on the meaning of this error? I have not encountered any errors for older encrypted files.

Hi.. anybody can clarify if om_azuremonitor work in air gap environment  Thx for your inputs

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?

Hi! Can somebody help me with how DNS resolution works in Nxlog configuration?Thx !

Hi Support,I would like to inquire whether NXLog supports tamper-proofing for syslog received and stored in the NXLog Relay Server.Thank you.Regards,Billy

I'm using NX log enterprise to collect Sysmon logs.I have a problem with EventID 12 , In the original (Windows view ) the event type is set to EventType: CreateKeyAs part of the NXlog output, in the Metadata the Event type is set to INFO and only in the msg field i can see the EventType: CreateKey  Please advice 

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.

We have the issue Nxlog Error 1067: the process terminated unexpectedly.Is there a way to fix this without reinstalling?Does re-installation require a reboot?
