So, the server (10.5.4.1) is a pfsense firewall. It is sending all of its syslog data to the OSSEC server on UDP 514. Every time the OSSEC server receives a syslog message it generates the error "2012/08/16 21:41:03 ossec-remoted(1213): WARN: Message from 10.5.4.1 not allowed."
So, yes pfsense is sending on UDP 514 and is being received by UDP 514 on the OSSEC box. So based on the error I don't think its a network issue, but an OSSEC issue. Help?
