I figured out how to use autosplit to create hourly log files in NG but is uses UTC time. Can this be changed to use local time?
I have high hopes for every release of NG and while it's improving there is a long way to go to replace KSS 9.8 in the 7 months before it goes EOL. My latest install has the following issues: * Rules did not import successfully, again. On the test server it's not an issue with 6 rules, prod servers have close to 100. *…
if we create a new rule with filters and actions, after some time, some of the filters loosing their description and the sort-order of the filter is automatically changed. Has anyone else seen this behavior? we've already opened a support-ticket....
In the legacy version, there was a way to mute logging to the C:\ProgramData\SolarWinds\KiwiSyslogService\logs folder. In Kiwi NG, there does not appear to be a way to mute this behavior. We typically deploy Kiwi NG to a VM with a minimal sized C: drive and store logs on a seperate drive. However, we are experiencing a…
I am using the new Kiwi NG and now trying to set up users for the I.T. Admins. So far I can only see that you can create local users in the Web UI. I would like to set this up with LDAP. I am not finding much documentation on how to do this. I would like to set this up so that LDAP is used and we log in with our AD domain…

We moved from the legacy kiwi syslog to NG this morning and discovered that the NG is truncating logs at 1024 characters. The legacy version is not. Is there a setting available to adjust this? Thanks!
I know the old Kiwi is now supposed to be bad because there is a new (NG) version, but I like my old version. The new version can KiSS it! (I'm joking, of course... but I'm not... but I am... but I'm not) The old version is super powerful, but it's also super old. The new version, which I've tried several times, just…
Hi All. This feels like a super simple issue that I should have been able to figure out. I am just starting to use Kiwi Syslog Server NG and I will be monitoring Windows Event Logs. I set up the forwarder and I can see events in the dashboard. When I go to the Events tab, I can only partially read the message. When I hover…
Many customers in Japan receive syslog messages in Shift-JIS code. Legacy KSS had a "Data Encoding" setting, so Japanese characters were not garbled. However, KSS NG v1.4 does not have a "Data Encoding" setting in the INPUTS protocols settings. As a result, Japanese messages in Shift-JIS are garbled in KSS NG. Please add a…
