Hi rgill90, only saw your message today.
I have one example as follows:
Inputs.conf
[splunktcp://:9997]
connection_host = ip
_TCP_ROUTING = splunkssl
Outputs.conf
[tcpout]
defaultGroup = splunkssl
[tcpout:splunkssl]
compressed = true
server = :9997
sslCertPath = ...
sslPassword = ...
sslRootCAPath = ...
sslVerifyServerCert = true
As you can see, the attribute value at inputs.conf of _TCP_ROUTING is splunkssl and at the outputs you must have that same name at tcpout.
Naturally you can give any name you want (no need to be "splunkssl" but they must match in both files)
