Kiwi Syslog + PFsense (parsing firewall log from 2 lines to 1 help)

February 6, 2013, 5:04 am

PROBLEM - pfSense syslogs for firewall event is split into two lines when it is sent to Kiwi syslog app.

 

Is there a way to edit configuration or parsing script to parse the pfSense event as one similar to what the Splunk app can do see link http://www.basementpctech.com/content/pfsense-log-analysis-splunk

 

I understand that this is a PFsense tcpdump/issue, but I have already tried changing link http://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/1938 without any luck, it just don't work, tried all combinations of changes without any luck.

 

Pfsense version = 2.0.1-RELEASE, (amd64) , built on Mon Dec 12 18:16:13 EST 2011 ,FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE-p6

 

I would really appreciate any help with this, as I have already exhasted searching for a working soloution using Kiwi Syslog, and the only thing holding me back from purchasing this application.

 

Appreciate any help on this..........

When is Kiwi Syslog v10 coming out?

As you all may recall, it's been 7 months since Kiwi Syslog v9.5 was posted (see Kiwi Syslog 9.5 is now Available! ).  I am very much looking forward to a major release (i.e. v10).  What would this new version contain?  I have a few things in my wish-list...

 

  • Increased the of number of syslog messages and snmp traps that can Kiwi can handle. According to a posting on Geek Speak (How many messages can Kiwi Syslog manage?), Kiwi can handle between 400 and 600 messages per second.  I'd like to see that go all the way up to 2,000 messages (or more).
  • Rules Wizard (for the novice and those of us with diminished brain-cells due to age. 
  • Full web-based management option.  I don't know about other Thwackers, but I prefer not to use Win32 (via RDP) whenever possible.
  • Additional Polling Engine option for Kiwi.  This, so we can have multiple servers handle syslog messages and snmp traps.

 

I am sure that other Thwackers have many other items in their respective wish-list for Kiwi.  I'd like to hear from you.  And, of course, I'd like to hear from the Kiwi PM, to tell us what's in the Roadmap for the next Kiwi release.  Have a great day, everyone!!!

Kiwi C: drive space

One of our Kiwi instances is running out of room on the C: drive. When I check for large files, I see two logs from uws.apphost.clr2.x86.trace.log, using up almost 30gb. I understand this is Ultidev web server application process, which appears integral with Kiwi.  Is this log safe to delete to free up space? When attempting to open it to view log history, it's locked indicating it's

in use by another process and can't be openend. Kiwi UWS-apphost-clr2-x86-trace-log-using-up-c-drive.PNG

Hi, I was hoping someone can explain the log files ('SolarWinds.SyslogServer.Engine.log') created in the Syslogd folder to me. What purpose do they serve? Are they safe to delete? Can I set them to be created in a different directory?

 

Thank you.

Log to Database not working

I am having trouble getting the Log to Database action to work. I am using SQL 2005 Enterprise and is seems to be an issue with the authentication but I can't figure out what I am doing wrong. I was able to get the database table created but no events are being logged. When I test the action I get "Database connection error: Login failed for user 'NT Authority\Snonymous...'. I am speciying a SQL account in the connection string and ODBC control panel. The user has dbo rights to the database.

 

Any ideas?

How to load-balance Kiwi Syslog servers

December 23, 2013, 12:31 pm

I've got a set of 3 Kiwi servers sitting behind an F5, which I *thought* would effectively load balance the incoming syslog volume (I'm seeing around 5-8million messages per hour, and we haven't really turned everything on yet).

 

The problem, I just discovered, is that F5 load balances based on connections, not messages/packets. So round robin isn't round robin since most of my sending systems are passing new messages (and therefore creating a connection) more than even the lowest "disconnect after" option on the F5 (which is 1 second).

 

So my first server is maxing out at about 5million MPH and 0% buffer, while server 02 gets 2million messages and 80% buffer, and server 03 gets barely anything at all.

 

Has anyone else tried this, and have you found a work around (it doesn't have to be an F5. I just need the ability to create a pool of Kiwi servers and have all the systems in my enterprise sending to ONE ip address.

 

Thanks!

Sizing of syslog storage

Hello,

 

We need to implement a syslog containing a trace of all web access of 15 users.

But we don't have any idea of the volume required.

 

Do you have any estimation (a rough range is enough) of the daily syslog volume for an average web use (webmail + surf) ?

 

We will only register :

- origin MAC address

- origin IP address

- network port

- destination IP address

- timestamp

 

Thanks in advance for your help.

In order for the syslogs that come from an ISE server you must change the message length to 8192 on the device or the messages will be messed up.

Is there a setting on the KIWI server I need to adjust to accommodate this?

It appears when viewing the logs coming in thru the manager console they look ok, but if you send that to a log file the entries in the file are incomplete or truncated.

Hello all,

I keep getting the below errors when trying to send info to our SQL database.

2010-10-10 16:49:39     DBLogger.ClearQueue aborted with error: Incorrect syntax near '2222:43:netmgtd:10-Oct-2010 16:49:37.018014:rca_ocp.c:295:INFO:25.2.4:GUI: Account admin from 10.X.X.XX logged in to 10.X.X.X'. - SQL statement has been removed from the database cache.

') : C:\Program Files\Syslogd\DBCache\ca7ad33fa4e635d00d4106908427f600 [Line:0]

I have setup the the log to database using the built in sql file format as well as creating one from scratch.  What I don't get is that every time I use the debug command, the table gets updated properly without any errors.  But when I apply my settings the log file gets filled with errors.  I know it is complaining about quotes someplace, but in the view none of the statements have any quotes in them.  

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you,

Kiwi Syslog not capturing syslogs

Installed Kiwi Syslog Free version 9.3.4 on Windows Server 2008 R2.  Trying to capture syslog from a Cisco ASA 5510.  I have confirmed that the syslog events are hitting the server with Wireshark.  Nothing is coming through to Kiwi Syslog.  Current settings are all default.  No filters in place.  Not sure what is wrong as I can see the syslog messages coming through Wireshark. Any ideas as to why the syslog messages are not being seen by Kiwi?

I am having kiwi syslog 9.5 installed.

I choose to install as service and also installed the web access.

The syslog console opened fine and I see logs on displayed and also to file.

However, with the web access, it shows nothing (what so ever).  I checked the Setup on Console Manager and see that under Rules i have 2 exact same option for "Log to Syslog Web Access".  Everything under that options checked.

But I still see no log on web access.

 

1) I tried to uncheck all the "Log to Syslog Web Access".

2) Closed the Console Manager and reopened it

3) Checked mark one of the 2 optioins "Log to Syslog Web Access" and everything below it.

4) Opened and log in to web access -> Still see nothing.

 

any idea?

Forward syslog events to QRadar

I'm trying to forward events from Kiwi Syslog to QRadar SIEM. 

 

In Kiwi Syslog setup, I created an Action: Forward to another host; gave it the QRadar appliance's IP as the Destination IP; selected "Retain the original source address of the message"; clicked the Test button to verify the configuration and got a gree checkmark.

 

The test event was the only event received by the QRadar.  None of the events I'm forwarding have been received as incoming logs on QRadar.

 

I've tried this with and without adding the Kiwi Syslog servers as log sources in QRadar.

 

Do I need to install a universal DSM on the Kiwi Syslog servers?

SolarWinds's own Justin Finley just recorded a video tutorial that shows how to split logs into multiple displays in Kiwi Syslog Server.

 


External link to Jing: Multiple Displays - justinfinley's library

 

Video Guide:

  • 0:00 Unfiltered display (Display 00)
  • 0:10 Showing the rule that sends all messages to Display 00
  • 0:20 Changing the unfiltered display from Display 00 to Display 05
  • 0:25 Checking that the switch happened
  • 0:35 Adding a new filter rule looking for the word "logon" and sending it to Display 01
  • 1:20 Adding a new filter rule looking for the word "logoff" and sending it to Display 02
  • 2:05 Checking that the new filters work
  • 2:25 Renaming "Display 05" to "All Messages"
  • 2:45 Renaming "Display 01" to "Logon" and "Display 02" to "Logoff"
  • 3:10 Checking that the display renaming worked
