Hello guys,
I setup kiwi syslog server and could receive message from other devices, such cisco switch 2960, 5510, and windows server. But can not get any message from 3750. I enclosed 3750 configuration as below. Please help to take a look and where am I wrong. Thank you.

I currently have a Kiwi Syslog (9.3.4) on a Windows Server 2003 R2 (x64) and would like to know the following;
1. Can I install the current version (9.3.4) into a newly build Windows Server 2012 R2 machine? Is it compatible with Server 2012 R2? If yes, can I move the database of the old Kiwi to the newly installed Kiwi Syslog server? If no;
2. Can I install the new version (9.5) into a newly build Windows Server 2012 R2 without buying a new license?
Thanks guys.
Good day Community,
I am experiencing an urgent issue. The sys log server forwarder is forwarding the following message to the KIWI sys log server. The actual security logs are showing the correct information, however the message below is being showed. I thought it was the server, but wen I added another sever to forward security logs, I am getting the same message as shown below.
Can anyone who have encountered this message or know how to resolve this issue. The security logs are on the server and I can view them using event viewer properly and audit logs are reflecting fine.
I would really appreciate your humble assistance or comments.

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?

Hi
i am installing syslog in my server room to monitor the log in/log out operations on serers... i installed log forwarder on some windows server 2003 servers and everithig is ok but now i installed it on some windows server 2012 and all the messages that i receive from these servers are like this :''06-08-2015 17:03:47 Kernel.Info 172.19.12.119 giu 08 17.03.47 srv-av.astergenova.it MSWinEventLog 6 Application 127 lun giu 08 17.03.41 2015 1003 Microsoft-Windows-Security-SPP N/A Information srv-av.astergenova.it 0 The description for Event ID 1003 from source Microsoft-Windows-Security-SPP cannot be found.

do you have idea of how to fix this? syslogger is installed on a xp machine but i also tried to install it on a windows 2012 server machine and nothing changed
Hi all,
Can anyone point me in the direction some documentation on how to change the default Kiwi Syslog web port from 8088 to something else? Say 80?
I had a 'quick' search and couldn't find anything solid to go off.
Thanks!
Hopefully this makes sense. Barracuda has published a script in Perl that demonstrates how to parse the log. The items in the message field are separated by spaces. Barracuda shows the following in their script (the message field has been placed in the $info variable earlier in their scrip):
if( $info =~ /([^\s]+)\s([^\s]+)\s([^\s]+)\s([-\.\d+]+)\s(\d+)\s(\d+)\s(.*)\sSUBJ:(.*)$/ )
{
($enc, $sender, $recip, $score, $action, $reason, $reason_extra, $subject) =
($1, $2, $3, $4, $5, $6, $7, $8);
}
What I would like to do is place these in the Custom variable 1-8. Going through the kiwi example that comes with the syslog server, that part seems relatively easy.
I am brand new to Perl and trying to get this accomplished in the Evaluation window of the Kiwi server to show proof of concept. Is Perl the best way to separate the message based on spaces? Is there a better way to do this? Or does someone have an example of how to do this in Perl or any other language that kiwi supports?
Cheers
Hi There,
I'm trialing Kiwi Syslog and I'm having trouble with the Log Forwarder and Security Event Log. When I click on the Security Log I don't see Audit Success or Audit Failure as an event type. It just has Error, Warning and Information. If I manually edit the CFG file and add <int>16</int> it works, but then it gets overwritten if I make a change. Am I doing something wrong? How can I see Audit Failure as an Event Type?
Thanks,
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..........

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?

Hi,
I have a problem with python script, my script works fine when I run it outside Kiwi syslog with test data as you can see it in picture below
but when i try to run it inside kiwi syslog i get error as you can see in next pictures
this is the script:
there is very little info on python script usage in kiwi syslog, maybe I'm doing something wrong. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I have recently been handed over Kiwi Syslog server to manage which has both Fat Client and Web Server. Fat Client is directly logged in however Web console could not be logged in. When I checked regarding the password of "Administrator", I have been informed that resource handling it has left long ago and there is no one to tell.
Is there a way we can reset the password of Administrator or create a new user from Syslog Fat Client. I cant raise the request with Support as we do not have active maintanence.
Thanks,
Syed
HI all,
My first post, i wish to share you some tips i found.
My main goal was to have access to the kiwi web site working with SSL...
But looking at Cassinni Web Server, it wasn't possible.
After searching more on this forum I found a post about a Rewriting Module with Apache ; so why dont we do it with IIS ?
Here we go !
- Win 2008 R2 , IIS 7 (with auth modules etc ...) , at least a working SSL certificate for the HTTPS listener (this post will not cover how PKI works, certs installation etc .... sorry).
- We will use the ARR 2.0 module x64 for IIS... See References at bottom for DL link, install it.
- A running Kiwi Syslog Server and the Web Access working on port 8088. Access via a browser works on this port.
- Enable the rewrite/proxy module in IIS
- Create a new IIS Web Site with HTTPS Listener on TCP Port 8090
- Create a rule to rewrite requests from 8090 to 8088
- When connecting on https://server:8090 , we would see Kiwi Web page.
"C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe" set config -section:system.webServer/proxy /enabled:"True" /commit:apphost
set syslogwebdir=c:\inetpub\syslog
set syslogsitename=SYSLOG
"C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe" add site /name:"%syslogsitename%" /id:15 /bindings:https/*:8090: /physicalPath:"%syslogwebdir%"
3.1 With batch/cmd line(copy/past to a BAT file)
set CERTHASH=EnterYourHashHere
netsh http add sslcert ipport=0.0.0.0:8090 certhash=%CERTHASH% appid={00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}
3.2 With IIS Manager (if you don't know where to read Hash Certificate).
-Right Click on SYSLOG site, modify Bindings.
-Select https 8090 * Listener > Modify.
-On the "box" SSL Certificate, choose your certificate for the server.
-"OK"
set syslogsitename=SYSLOG
set syslogrulename="Rewrite to Kiwi localhost 8088"
:: Rewrite Rule creation
"C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe" set config "%syslogsitename%" -section:system.webServer/rewrite/rules /+[name='%syslogrulename%']
:: Rule Parameters (one line)
"C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe" set config "%syslogsitename%" -section:system.webServer/rewrite/rules /[name='%syslogrulename%'].action.type:"Rewrite" /[name='%syslogrulename%'].match.url:"(.*)" /[name='%syslogrulename%'].action.url:"http://localhost:8088/{R:1}"
Test with your browser https://localhost:8090/
Now you can access from an "admin desktop" to this new SSL web site ...
Configure your firewalls to forbid access on port 8088 to this server (or/and configure the internal Windows Firewall of this server to allow only Localhost connection on 8088).

At the beginning i was thinking to use http://mysite/syslog/ as a virtual directory, but I got some troubles with events.aspx and the rewrite module.
Inbound Rules was OK ; But Outbound Rules to rewrite URLS were not working as expected ; and filters in Kiwi were not working anymore.
That's why i decided to create a new site on another binding, with a root site ; so don't need to create Outbound Rules ...

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!
