I have splunk installed in ServerB, Windows server 2008 and i have MachineA, XP. I hope to send the syslog from MachineA to ServerB thru port 514. To be make sure that, port 514 is listening in ServerB. Besides, i set it up thru the syslog by TCP port as following the document guide. But yet, i still cant get any results from that.</P> Mon, 15 Apr 2013 01:58:20 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Sending-syslog-from-MachineA-to-ServerB-Thru-port-514-Not/m-p/93238#M19395 limwesiang 2013-04-15T01:58:20Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Sending-syslog-from-MachineA-to-ServerB-Thru-port-514-Not/m-p/93239#M19396 <P>First, can you telnet from MachineA to ServerB?<BR /><BR /> Is the port open in the firewall on both MachineA and ServerB?<BR /><BR /> Are there any firewalls between the servers that might be blocking access?</P> <P>Is MachineA sending syslog via TCP or UDP? The usual default for syslog is UDP, although it depends on how it is configured.</P> Mon, 15 Apr 2013 04:56:06 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Sending-syslog-from-MachineA-to-ServerB-Thru-port-514-Not/m-p/93239#M19396 lguinn2 2013-04-15T04:56:06Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Sending-syslog-from-MachineA-to-ServerB-Thru-port-514-Not/m-p/93240#M19397 <P>Yup. it is ok to telnet from MachineA to ServerB.<BR /> Besides, the port is also listening..<BR /> yes, finally i figure out the problem is because the serverB is not allowed to receive from network...therefore, it is worked after i allow it.</P> Mon, 15 Apr 2013 06:37:51 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Sending-syslog-from-MachineA-to-ServerB-Thru-port-514-Not/m-p/93240#M19397 limwesiang 2013-04-15T06:37:51Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Sending-syslog-from-MachineA-to-ServerB-Thru-port-514-Not/m-p/93241#M19398 <P>BTW, thanks a lot for your answer. appreciate of it.</P> Mon, 15 Apr 2013 06:38:08 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Sending-syslog-from-MachineA-to-ServerB-Thru-port-514-Not/m-p/93241#M19398 limwesiang 2013-04-15T06:38:08Z
