Hi Vilius,

If you are using the OSSEC Web UI 0.3 download from ossec.net you may want to have a look at some of the patches here on the list.
e.g. http://osdir.com/ml/ossec-list/2012-06/msg00161.html

The log format changed with version OSSEC 2.6 and broke some of the functionality of the Web UI. I don't use it any more, so I can't say if the changes still work with 2.7, but as long as the log formatting is the same, it should.

Hey,

I try to understand where exactly ossec-wui is parsing srcip, as I have often bad parsing, for example:

this comes from local agent, but equally strange results sometimes come from remotes as well.

I believe, that sometimes IP address cannot be extracted, but then most probably in this field should be nothing, right?

My programming/debugging skills are very rusty, but if it is not too tricky, I could try to adjust regexp not to fire such results, which messes up statistics and filtering.
