What do I do on the IPS side to configure Splunk for Cisco IPS

I've "configured" the Splunk for Cisco IPS application, but I'm getting the following back from the scripted input:

Wed Apr 4 11:55:04 2012 - ERROR - Connecting to sensor - 999.999.999.999: HTTPError: HTTP Error 401: Unauthorized
Wed Apr 4 11:55:04 2012 - INFO - Successfully connected to: 999.999.999.999
Wed Apr 4 11:55:04 2012 - INFO - Attempting to connect to sensor: 999.999.999.999
Wed Apr 4 11:55:04 2012 - INFO - No exsisting SubscriptionID for host: 999.999.999.999
Wed Apr 4 11:55:04 2012 - INFO - Checking for exsisting SubscriptionID on host: 999.999.999.999

Where 999.999.999.999 is the IP address of the IPS module in our ASA.

I'm pretty confident the problem is that we have no idea what we're doing to get the SDEE stuff set up on the IPS side.

Check the IPS to see if the Splunk IP is in the allowed hosts config on the IPS. Hope this helps.
