Can TA-connectivity add-on be run on a universal forwarder?
How can I run the TA-connectivity add-on? It seems that Python is not included with the universal forwarder. I am attempting to use on on RHEL 6 which has its own Python. How do I use TA-connectivity with the Linux installed Python?

How to determine which inputs are configured in my Splunk architecture?
Hello Team,
I have recently joined a team and the old Splunk admin has left.
I am messed up determining the number of Universal Forwarders, Direct data pull input and the number of ways data is brought into Splunk environment. Is there any way in Splunk where I can directly know from where the Inputs are configured to get into Splunk?
Please suggest how can I read to get information about the inputs to the architecture.

Why is the Universal Forwarder (Windows) not sending data with a timestamp to an indexer?
**The forwarder sends data to indexer if a line does not starts with a date time.**
e.g
**12/13/2016 12:45:77.907 -0500 Some content**
The above line fails
**12/13/2016 Some content**
Above line works
Seems like forwarder is trying to parse date time.
**Is there a way to forcefully tell forwarder not to parse datetime?**

How to blacklist specific accounts in Windows security log event 4663?
I've seen several posts here, but none that really have a concrete answer on this. I'm trying to blacklist certain accounts in my inputs.conf on the Splunk universal forwarder for Windows event id 4663 (object access).
Does anyone know the correct way to blacklist several account names from appearing in the data forwarded to Splunk? I've seen some people say key off of user, others with message= followed by some regex with Account Name.
The below obviously does not work.
blacklist = EventCode="4663" Account Name="User, SERVER$, UserAccount1, UserAccount2"

How to configure a universal forwarder to be aware of a WebLogic Windows server?
Hi,
I'm new to Splunk and learn as I go.
I set up the universal forwarder on the Oracle WebLogic server, and on the Splunk Web front end, I can see the perfmon counters for that server.
On the Splunk server (on Linux backend) the Technology Add-on has been installed and I can see it on the left hand side as a new app!
Now trying to configure the universal forwarder to be aware of WebLogic (Windows machine), so I copy Technology Add-on (TA)
**Function1_WebLogicServer\appserver\addons\Function1_WLS_Admin_win_TA** to C:\Program Files\SplunkUniversalForwarder\etc\apps\ on the WebLogic server and according to instructions modified
C:\Program Files\SplunkUniversalForwarder\etc\apps\Function1_WLS_Admin_win_TA\default\inputs.conf file to have the correct paths to the App server and WebLogic home location.
and that's where I get stuck. Could you please advise as to what actions should I take to get it working?
Thanks in advance

Where is the universal forwarder config
Hi,
Selecting Windows IIS logs (C:\inetpub\logs\LogFiles\W3SVC\) as event source during the installation of UF (splunkforwarder-6.5.1-f74036626f0c-x64-release.msi) resulted in data/events being forwarded to the Index (as expected), but I cannot find any entries in (C:\Program Files\SplunkUniversalForwarder\etc\system\local\inputs.conf) to show for this selection I made during the installation.
Where are the config details stored when specifying during the UF Installation?
TIA
Danny

Is there a way to run a script residing in a bin folder of an app located on the universal forwarder via a rest call?
Is there a way to run a script residing in one of the /bin folders of an app on a universal forwarder via a rest call with some parameters?
Security wise it would need to be only files in an app and not an arbitrary file on the target machine :-)

Why is Splunk Universal Forwarder on AWS not showing up in the list of forwarders in my Cloud instance?
I am new to Splunk and I am trying to test Splunk Cloud with my AWS instance. I have a forwarder built in AWS.
It does not show up in the forwarders of my cloud instance
It installs fine according to the instructions provided. I have installed using the .spl file and a local admin account. I restarted Splunk using the CLI. no errors were encountered - here is the output
> PS C:\Program> Files\SplunkUniversalForwarder\bin>> .\splunk.exe restart SplunkForwarder:> Stopped>> Splunk> Like an F-18, bro.>> Checking prerequisites...> Checking mgmt port [8089]: open> Checking conf files for problems...> Done> Checking default conf files for edits...> Validating installed files against hashes from 'C:\Program> Files\SplunkUniversalForwarder\splunkforwarder-6.5.1-> f74036626f0c-windows-64-manifest'> All installed files intact.> Done All preliminary checks passed.>> Starting splunk server daemon> (splunkd)...>> SplunkForwarder: Starting (pid 2200)> Done
The forwarder has internet access, and Windows firewall has been disabled.
I have added a syslog listener to the forwarder using Splunk add udp 514 -sourcetype syslog
I have confirmed that data is getting to the forwarder using wireshark but I don't see data being forwarded out
how can I determine what the issue is?
thanks
