This is after a restart from a windows vm that I installed the forwarder on and I put info in the outputs.conf
this is my outputs.conf file i tried to make it the same for windows and linux
currently box 1 is linux vm and box 2 is windows vm Ihave alled traffic on 8089,9997 and so on
i can ping linux host and what I believe to be the ip of splunk.
so first question is whats that error telling me (what do I need to change)?
If my linux ifconfig comes back as 10.1.1.2
but my nslookup of httpS://dinkdonk comes back as 10.1.10.20
which am I using as the ip for forwarding ip address
like when I do this on either linux or windows that ip should be the same right ? see below
./splunk add forward-server 10.10.10.10:9997
./splunk set deploy-poll 10.10.10.10:8089
Also just making sure in this case my linux vm is my DS and search head and indexer right?
