I want to upload a file/folder from a remote machine using a java program to Splunk on a local machine. I have created the connection with Splunk, but I couldn't figure out how to upload it. Splunk requires that the path of the file/folder to upload be local. Also, if possible, is there a way to do it without sharing the directory?

I didn't get the actual solution though. The work around that I did was to transfer files from the remote machine to the machine where Splunk was installed using Java (Socket programming) and then uploaded the files to Splunk. Hope it helps.
