      You know if I wasn't tired I would've noticed that @scottalanmiller made that a bash file.......

        Sadly the connection timed out still......

        I might have to make a clean installation tomorrow and deal with it then. . . .

                  @scottalanmiller Correct, when I attempt to run the bash file, I'm responded with filebeat not found from any yum repository.

                    I'm starting a clean installation on my personal lab to test with.

                    Should I bother with the syslog configuration before setting up Elk and LogStash?

                      No. Get ELK up first.

                        @scottalanmiller Ok will follow your guide first, and then work on the Elk info.

                          Yeah. That way you know it is working before you make other changes.

                            So for everyone looking to do this,

                            Start here
                            Then here

                            And then (and @scottalanmiller I'm asking for confirmation) perform what I posted in the OP.

                            Correct?

                              So on a brand new installation of Centos7 after completing Elk on Cent and then progressing to https://mangolassi.it/topic/8308/configuring-logstash-and-filebeat-to-send-to-elk-logging-system

                              I get this...

                                  What is missing from the second script is

                                  curl -L -O https://download.elastic.co/beats/filebeat/filebeat-1.2.3-x86_64.rpm
                                  
                                  sudo rpm -vi filebeat-1.2.3-x86_64.rpm

                                      Hrm, so I have a clean installation and when I go to the Elk/Logstash Web url I get a login prompt...

                                      But I haven't the slightest idea of what the username password is.

                                      Trying "kibana" and "changeme" results in the prompt asking for credentials again...

                                        And I'm in.

                                        Now to setup XenServer to send stuff to Kibana.
