I have installed 1 forwarder on my linux machine-1 and another on windows apache machine-2. The splunk has been installed on another windows machine-3. i was able to enable the receiving and am able to view forwader in splunk.
Now i need to monitor my apache logs from machine-1 and application logs from machine-2 from the remote machine-3 where splunk is installed. what should be the configurations for implementing the same.
