Interesting that ossec-wui isn't supported. I downloaded the appliance 
right from ossec.net and was following the instructions.

Went through my running processes and checked out their configs... sure 
enough, kibana is also included.

Opened up a browser to localhost:5601 and Kibana is still running like a 
champ. Not even going to try to fix the wui since I'm more familiar with 
ELK.

Thanks for the help, Eero.
