Installation

To install, extract the .tgz archive in $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps

You may need to enable the appropriate inputs, either via inputs.conf, or through the Manager in the Splunk GUI.

The application maintains a list of all known OSSEC servers in a lookup table. When you first install, this list will be empty except for a wildcard ntry. You can wait until it is populated automatically, or run OSSEC - Rebuild OSSEC Server Lookup Table from the Searches & Reports -> Utility menu.
