from a quick glance, the elasticsearch call is part of the local ruleset while
anything that arrives remotely only has the remote ruleset applied to it.
Am I missing something?

Subject: [rsyslog] Logs from remote server not making it to Elastic Search
I'm trying to centralize logs that originate from syslog-ng on a Security
Onion server (Ubuntu 14.04.3-11) at an central server running rsyslog
latest. I've configured SO to copy all logs to the central server on TCP
port 10514 and confirmed that Tcpdump shows log traffic (on TCP port 10514)
is leaving SO and arriving at the central server.
My goal is to ingest the remote logs into Elastic Search so I've been
following the instructions at
https://linux-help.org/wiki/logging/rsyslog/advanced-rsyslog. I had to
tweak some settings to get past parsing errors from rsyslog but that seems
OK now (according to rsyslogd -f rsyslog.conf -N1 with and without
$DebugLevel=1). At least rsyslogd now launches and runs correctly.
Problem is, only local logs are appearing in the Elastic Search index
(according to kibana). There's no sign of remote logs from Security Onion
in the ES indices. The only trace of remote logs is in
/srv/log/SecurityOnionVM/...) which seems to contain the right contents,
although I can find no signs of how they wound up there in the debug logs.
I'm new at rsyslog and have ridden the documentation about as far as it
will take me. Can someone help me get this bus on its wheels?
