syslog-ng needs update to use syslog-ng-icubator (plugins; for example to send directly from syslog-ng to elasticsearch). I'm busy but I tried to update it https://github.com/jirib/openbsd-mystuff/tree/master/sysutils/syslog-ng Latest diff was merged recently. > Browsing our ports collection I learnt about Logstash, Elasticsearch and > I found out about Kibana too even that it is not in the ports.
