Hi All
I've started ingest OpenVPN server logs. I've done a preliminary search on apps, answers and the Net at large and cannot find anything (field extractions, log structure). Has anyone had any experience in splunking/extracting openVPN logs that they would care to share with me?

Take a look at the TA-pfsense app. It has the extractions for openvpn logs.

It doesn't work quiet well however. I tried and the extractions do not happen as expected.

You may have to modify the app to work for your use case.
