Hello,

I have installed sysmon and I try to send it with a UniversalForwarder on that machine to my Splunk-Indexer and Search-Head...

I have tryed to add 

 

 

[WinEventLog://Microsoft-Windows-Sysmon/Operational]
disabled = 0

[WinEventLog://"Applications and Services Logs/Microsoft/Windows/Sysmon/Operational"]
disabled = 0

[WinEventLog://Applications and Services Logs/Microsoft/Windows/Sysmon/Operational]
disabled = 0

 

 

to the inputs.conf, but non of that versions worked...

I have also restarted the UniversalForwarder and the Indexer / Search-Head has the Sysmom app installed.

What am I doing wong?!

 

PS.: Sysmon is running and I see the logged data in the Eventviewer of that machine...
