I have installed a universal forwarder on the Windows machine, but the actual logs are getting generated at a shared location.
How do I get these logs forwarded to Splunk?
Logs generated locally to the machine (C:\test) are getting forwarded to Splunk.
Any help is appreciated.
you should be able to use the unc path to the share (eg \server\share\app.log), but whatever account splunk runs as would need read permissions to that share. For example, if your uf runs as system, then the computer account would need to be given read perms on the share. If it runs as a user, then that user would need access.
