Why am I unable to use token authentication on a universal forwarder

Hello the Splunk community I'm trying to use the token authentication between an indexer and a universal forwarder. All seems to be good on my indexer, but the UF doesn't seem to understand the configuration. This is my configuration in /local/outputs.conf: [tcpout] defaultGroup = index [tcpout:index] server= aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd:ppp token = 8-4-4-4-12 When I restart the Splunk daemon, the token stays in clear in the configuration file and on the indexer, I have this log: *"token not sent by forwarder!"* If I specify that without the token, the UF works very well. Does somebody know where I'm wrong? Bonus question: Does anyone know how the token is created (urand, ...)? thank you a lot!
