Service won't run as Windows Domain Account
(Not tagged)
Anytime I change the splunkd service in Windows to a Windows Domain login/pwd, it crashes. The service works fine when running as the local system account. Running as local system account I cannot get WMI to pull down the Windows Event logs from another Windows machine. Thanks, -Matt

Transaction Processor
(Not tagged)
This is a great feature to be added (I didn't find that the whole metaevents features was really that useful) but I'm still wondering how to do transitive events with it: I am supposed to be able to specify several fields like in metaevents but how should the fields be listed? Separating the fieldnames ...

Windows: splunkd crashes when using UDP network inputs
(Not tagged)
I'm trying to get Eventlog to Syslog (guy from Purdue created it years ago) to spit data at Splunk for Windows. As soon as anything sends data splunkd immediately crashes. In fact, as a whole, splunkd is pretty unstable. I can get it to crash by sending brutal searches at it. The biggest whiner ...

Search modifiers
(Not tagged)
On Preview 3 Solaris/SPARC it seems like the search modifiers maxresults and readlimit do not work. Without those modifiers, a few events are returned. For the webinterface, maxresults works, but only through the preferences menu.

File System Monitor
(Not tagged)
First kudos to you! It's really great having access to preview functions... I've got a problem with fschange. I just want to monitor one file ( /home/myhome/hosts ). Nothing comes in. I then tried to apply a filter, but now all files under /home/myhome are sucked in (non-recursively) input.conf ...

WinEventLog
(Not tagged)
How does the WinEventLog processor work? I guess some fields are extracted automatically (event metadata like EventID, UserID etc), and the description is used as the event text. If I want to index additional fields from the event text, I guess this is done the same way as any other event?

Suggestion: Audit for Windows Registry
(Not tagged)
Auditing the windows registry would be a neat function. I'm thinking about a feature similar to filesystem change monitor, but instead working on files, it should work on the windows registry.
