Getting Data In

Splunk SC4S and barracuda

Hello,

I am new to Splunk.  I have successfully got our SC4S server setup and sending info to Splunk.  I am working on getting data in from our Barracuda Web Filter.  The data is going in but getting assigned a source type of nix:syslog.  I have installed the BarracudaWebFilter app in Splunk but for it to work I am reading the sourcetype needs to be "barracuda".   I believe I need to add a line in the splunk_metadata.csv file on the SC4S server but not sure what it should be.  Anybody else set this up and have any info the could provide.

Thanks,
