Nagios Log Server (logstash) filter for pfSense 2.2

[ljorgensen]

I tried various logstash implementations and didn't get far on any of them. Then I tried Nagios Log Server and it worked out of the box. It's a commercial product built on top og Logstash and Elasticsearch and it's very easy to use.

Hi mikesamo thank you soo much for this I really Appreciate it. I am downloading as we speak and I will let you know how it goes. I am going to follow this https://www.rootusers.com/how-to-convert-an-ova-virtual-machine-to-vhd/
because i use Hyper-V  and hopefully it goes well

Thank you again for everything.

also side note I was wondering if its possible to change the password and the name that appears sexilog kinda awkward to put in a work environment with that name haha  :D

[mikesamo]

check this link they explain how to build that vm.

http://www.sexilog.fr/cookbook/

to change the name and setting please read about logstash and kibana you should find it easily.

Thanks,

Hi Mikesamo,
What im also trying to do is add install  NGINX for security. But thats were i screw everything up i get the 503 error not sure if to add it before Kibana or after.

Thanks

if you guys are interested i made a guide finished it up only thing that needs fixing is the syslogs (pfSense system logs) not filtering  correctly with the sysdashboard
https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=98740.msg549992#msg549992

and i need to add curator to delete logs after time or gigs and then backup before deleting.
