I have a UF setup on a windows 2012 server. I am logging Win sec logs but I see some in the event viewer that are not going into splunk.. How can I get all the logs to go into Splunk from the windows server?

Hi Jordan54
You have to find in your inputs.conf of Splunk_TA_Windows if there are some blacklist or whitelist.
after, identify which events are in Event Viewer and not in Splunk and check which stanza shopuld take them (maybe is disabled).
