    <title>topic How to add a UNC paths shared folder to inputs.conf in universal forwarder? in Getting Data In</title>
    <link>https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/How-to-add-a-UNC-paths-shared-folder-to-inputs-conf-in-universal/m-p/658048#M111335</link>
    <description>&lt;P&gt;am trying to add new input in the inputs.conf which is a network shared folder&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;to forward some logs from a device where it has no forward logs option&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;when viewing splunkd.log i see that the username and password are wrong&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;09-19-2023 21:59:46.953 +0300 WARN FilesystemChangeWatcher [10812 MainTailingThread] - error getting attributes of path "\\192.168.1.142\df\InvalidPasswordAttempts.log": The user name or password is incorrect.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;although i can access the shared folder with a browser on the UF host with no problems&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;by the way am using my Microsoft account to login to the windows11 where the UF resides&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;any suggestions ?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;thanks&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
