Hi Dale,

On Unix (and any operating system), when a process is listening on a specific
port, no other process is allowed to use it. So, if you have ossec listening on
port 514, splunk is not going to be able to use it. What you can do is disable
remote syslog on ossec, enable your syslog server to receive remote messages
and configure ossec and splunk to read from the files directly.

Hope it helps.

I'm running both ossec and splunk and want both to have access to
syslog sources but it seems that splunk doesn't have access.  Does
ossec take exclusive use of port 514?

Regards,

Dale
