Hi Graeme. I agree, it would be great to print on the log that the agent became disconnected. The SEC_ERROR definition is shared between manager and agents, but it's possible to extend some other messages. In fact, the line at sendmsg.c that tests if the agent is disconnected (more than 20 minu

[ossec-list] When to use separate OSSEC Manager

2016-07-29 Thread Christopher J. Bischoff
Its been a while, but few years (I forgot the version) it was required to have separate OSSEC Managers per ruleset/alerting deployment. For example if I have 2x completely deployments (OS + applications installed + alerting threshold) - would I need 2x separate OSSEC Managers to receive events.

Delving into Sysmon event log parsing reveals just how monumental a task it is to parse out useful information from Windows event logs. The challenge is that nearly each and every Event ID has a different log format, which essentially means that almost every Event ID needs its own decoder... I m

Hi Victor, Huge thanks for the detail, this would explain exactly why we're seeing this; our OSSEC managers are likely overloaded. It would be very helpful to include the agentid in the logfile to understand / track where this is occurring and the number of unique agents that are impacted, per

I've tried to figure that out, but it was nigh on impossible. The closest is that file descriptor, "10" but that doesn't mean much. I didn't see a filename. It turns out that it wasn't *just* "\0\0\0\0" over and over -- there were some other escape sequences in there as well. But nothing that l
