Hi,

I have configured a Linux server to send events to Syslog-ng but now want to use the Splunk Add-on for Unix and Linux to make the parsing easier but looking at the inputs.conf it only seems relevant to a UF install. Has anyone manipulated it so  the same results are achieved via a syslog ingest?
