      I still don't know why the logging isn't showing up in Kibana. . .

        What do the local logs say? On both ends. There should be Logstash logs saying what has happened.

          I'm still new to syslog, so what should I be looking at to answer this question?

            You could just use Graylog. It uses rsyslog instead of file-beat (which doesn't work with journalctl anyway).

              Since I'm having a hell of time getting this going, I setup a KiwI Syslog on a VM from one of my host, and it just works.

              Just enabling the logging to the IP address, and let it go.

                Instead of posting the logs to diagnose?

                    Check the logs.

                      My point with the Kiwi server is that I must've misconfigured something on the SysLog installation.

                      Since I've made no direct change other than the logging address in the XC settings. (which does update the settings in the server) but it doesn't change the default port etc.

                          ... and what would be a decent way to view this as it breezes by at 100 lines a second?

                          Is there a specific event you're looking for?

                            It only breezes by if you tail it. Try just looking at it statically.

                            What is generating so many messages?

                                Have you tried? If you're seeing logs coming in from XenServer, then you should be on the right track.

                                tail -f|grep nameofsourceserver

                                  So this is what I have currently with the Kibana system running.

                                  0_1471347264505_putty_2016-08-16_07-34-00.png

                                  @dafyre tail -f|grep servername results in "tail: warning: following standard input indefinitely is ineffective"

                                    Here it is with me connected to the system, and my server supposedly sending logs to it.

                                        I don't see any error messages in the above logs.

                                        So what did I mess up?

                                          In /var/log/kibana/kibana.stout I have the below...

                                          {"type":"log","@timestamp":"2016-08-15T15:43:07+00:00","tags":["fatal"],"pid":23942,"level":"fatal","message":"listen EADDRINUSE 127.0.0.1:5601","error":{"message":"listen EADDRINUSE 127.0.0.1:5601","name":"Error","stack":"Error: listen EADDRINUSE 127.0.0.1:5601\n    at Object.exports._errnoException (util.js:870:11)\n    at exports._exceptionWithHostPort (util.js:893:20)\n    at Server._listen2 (net.js:1236:14)\n    at listen (net.js:1272:10)\n    at net.js:1381:9\n    at GetAddrInfoReqWrap.asyncCallback [as callback] (dns.js:63:16)\n    at GetAddrInfoReqWrap.onlookup [as oncomplete] (dns.js:82:10)","code":"EADDRINUSE"}}
                                          

                                          And in kibana.stderr

                                          [root@syslog-cent kibana]# tail kibana.stderr
                                          	 errno: 'EADDRINUSE',
                                          	 syscall: 'listen',
                                          	 address: '127.0.0.1',
                                          	 port: 5601 },
                                            isOperational: true,
                                            code: 'EADDRINUSE',
                                            errno: 'EADDRINUSE',
                                            syscall: 'listen',
                                            address: '127.0.0.1',
                                            port: 5601 }
                                          

                                          Is the system listening to the wrong port? Shouldn't it be 514 or 5140?
