My certificates have expired and I want my logs to get to Splunk. I know can reissue certificates, but I determined that this is no longer necessary. So what do I need to do to just disable this? </P> <P>Do I need to change a setting in outputs.conf on the forwarder? </P> <P>Thanks in advance! </P> Wed, 23 Apr 2014 21:22:57 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/Disable-SSL-Communication/m-p/140850#M4322 cuppma 2014-04-23T21:22:57Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/Disable-SSL-Communication/m-p/140851#M4323 <P>Hi cuppma,</P> <P>basically you do the reverse version of the docs about <A href="http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/6.0.3/Security/ConfigureSplunkforwardingtousethedefaultcertificate">Configure Splunk forwarding to use the default certificate</A>.
