Kiwi 9.4.1 "** INTERNAL PROGRAM ERROR | Error Number: 401 | **"

Hello

 

I don’t know if this is the proper place where looking for help about Kiwi syslog 9.4.1. Sorry if I wrong.

 

 

End customer is using free Kiwi Syslog 9.4. for interconnect a Cisco Call Manager Express with an Accounting Tool which read and processes syslog events sent by the CME

We faced that kiwi stopped processing received events. We found Error Number: 401 after rebooting the server because Kiwi was not processing any event.

 

And also, some times, and frequently, the same event stacks and is processed hundreds of times… and so the accounting tool shows the same call hundreds of times…

 

Seems that all is related.

Thanks by advance for your help.

End customer is using free Kiwi Syslog 9.4. I don’t know if you can help me in any way.

Administrator Password Missed; Other way to login

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

How to load-balance Kiwi Syslog servers

$
0
0

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!

Parsing Kiwi Syslog Data

$

All,

 

I am trying to parse data that is received with Kiwi Syslog and then forward that parsed data to another syslog server that is viewed by other technicians. The issue I am having is that the server that sends the data is sending to much information that is not needed to the destination syslog server. I see that Kiwi Syslog does have the ability to do some parsing via VBscript. I was hoping someone could post a script that I could try that would parse the following data.

 

02-08-2019 14:25:19 User.Warning 172.16.0.145 Feb  8 20:25:19 Server1.penfield.edu ERAServer[743]: {"event_type":"Threat_Event","ipv4":"172.17.21.137","hostname":"Computer1.microsoft.com","source_uuid":"ecef5ff4-0535-42e2-9985-41110278b0db","occured":"08-Feb-2019 19:16:43","severity":"Warning","threat_type":"potentially unwanted application","threat_name":"JS/Spigot.B","scanner_id":"Real-time file system protection","scan_id":"virlog.dat","engine_version":"18843 (20190208)","object_type":"file","object_uri":"file:///C:/Users/JDoe/AppData/Local/Temp/scoped_dir6204_15059/CRX_INSTALL/background.js","action_taken":"cleaned by deleting","threat_handled":true,"need_restart":false,"circumstances":"Event occurred on a newly created file.","firstseen":"08-Feb-2019 19:16:43","hash":"B19897AB34E780D9F53E6AC8BE78BE26094693FD"}

 

The only data I need to pass to the other syslog server from Kiwi server is the following data,

 

"hostname":"Computer1.microsoft.com"

"threat_name":"JS/Spigot.B"

"object_uri":"file:///C:/Users/Jdoe/AppData/Local/Temp/scoped_dir6204_15059/CRX_INSTALL/background.js"

"scanner_id":"Real-time file system protection"

 

The parts marked in red do change. Is this possible?

Kiwi Syslog not receiving any message

Hello,

 

I just installed Syslog on a Windows 8 VM (ESXi 5.5).

However... I don't received any message from the router (Cisco RV042G) I want to log.

 

I tried the generic troubleshhoting :

• Check network connectivity by pinging from the sending device to the Syslog Server machine  => OK
• Check only one instance of Kiwi Syslog Server is running (Ctrl-Shift-Esc to get the task-list) => OK, only one
• Disable any personal firewall software such as ZoneAlarm or BlackIce => Disabled

• Use a sniffer to check if messages from the routing are reaching the PC => Yes, I can see them
• Check DNS resolution is working as expected by pinging a hostname from the Command Prompt => OK
• Check that there is a "Display" action setup for the facility and level you are expecting to receive messages on. => OK
• Send a test message to yourself by pressing Ctrl+T => Displayed
• Download a copy of the Free Syslog Server Message Generator (SyslogGen) from: www.kiwisyslog.com/downloads => Done
• Install SyslogGen and set it to send a message every second to the address 127.0.0.1 (local host). => Not displayed, and I don't see them in a local packet capture.
• Try sending messages with SyslogGen from another machine to the host running the Syslog Server => Not displayed, but see them on a packet capture (on Syslog PC)

 

Do you have any idea about the cause of this issue ?

 

Thanks in advance for your help.


How to search all log files

$

0

Hi everyone,

 

Can someone confirm that both the Kiwi Syslog Service Manager console and the Kiwi Syslog Web Access will only display messages for current log files.  Therefore, a find or filter will only bring up hits for the most current log files, correct?

 

Assuming that is the case, I found a thread that mentions WinGREP as a freeware to search all log files on your hard drive.  Wouldn't it be helpful for this capability to be integrated into Kiwi Syslog Server?

 

For example, I am importing all Windows Security events from all domain controllers into Kiwi Syslog Server.  I want to be able to search for a username and the phrase "user account is locked out" for as far back as I have logs.  How do I do this easily?

 

Thanks,

Tony

I just did a migration from Kiwi Syslog 9.6.1 to the latest 9.6.7. Now I cannot login to the web console at all, with any account. The error I receive is:

 

Exception of type 'System.Web.HttpUnhandledException' was thrown.

Status Code: 500

I attempted a reinstall of 9.6.7. I also rebooted the server.

 

I am dead in the water, so to speak and need to get back in to run audit reports. Any help would be incredibly appreciated.

Kiwi Message Buffer

$

0

We have two syslog servers and use a F5 to load balance between the two. In total they receive around 45 million messages a day.We have around a dozen rules that forward messages onto a security appliance or splunk and it can take around 30 minutes before those messages arrive. It can also take 30 minutes for any emails to end up in a users mailbox.

 

As soon as we start the syslog service the message count on the buffer starts to climb and eventually the overflow queue increase. We haven't checked the stats for a while but one of the servers had a overflow queue count of 125,000! It is a VM server running Windows 2003, 2 CPU's and 4Gb RAM.

 

Here are the stats from the first hour of starting the syslog service
