Splunk Search

Splunk Searching Commands/Strings

Im fairly new to splunk (and linux for that matter) but I am trying to find a Web Page or Manual or whaeter that will list all the possible search commands/strings I can use to search through event logs that have been sucked into splunk.

I am most interested in searching windows security logs, but if there were a repository that listed or helped me learn how to search with Splunk and what strings or commands were available that would be sweet.

thx

Here are some resources I would recommend:

These pages also include other links that are quite helpful. I won't duplicate them all here, it's better to reference them within their original context.
