Problem Automatic Log Upload - Defender for Cloud Apps

Hello Community,

I have a strange problem with the activity in the Title.

I have create Data Sources from Fortinet

And a Log collector

With the correct documentation that is linked https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/defender-cloud-apps/discovery-docker-ubuntu-azure?tabs=centos

So i have a Fortinet Firewall that send by SYSLOG log to the VM Ubuntu in Azure, i have deploy docker, Ubuntu receive log from firewall, i see traffic is correct.

But from Cloud Apps connector remains into "Connected" state.

Regards,

Guido

  • Hello Community, i solved this problem, and also make an Italian Guide for Community that explain how to solve this problem.

    I solved with check rsyslog log into Ubuntu Machine, there is an error that not permit to create folder into destination of syslog, after i repair permission i modify rsyslog.conf and open correct port 514 and all works fine.

    Regards,

    Guido

      Hello Lucas Fumeiro​, yes i solved in two way:

      • Modify rsyslog.conf to accept connection from SYSLOG port 514 and open this port on ubuntu machine
      • I seed in the rsyslog log that when rsyslog receive log, the serivce can't create a folder (access denied) after that i give correct permission all works fine

       

      Many Thanks,
