On the server, what do you get for: ausearch --start recent -m DAEMON_ACCEPT -i The server side records some information about why it did not allow a connection. > 192.168.103.7 is the IP address of the central log server. > > Notes: My settings are below: > > on server as well on client: > /etc/audisp/audisp-remote > > remote_server = 192.168.103.7 > port = 6999 > local_port = 6999 > transport = tcp > queue_file = /var/spool/audit/remote.log > mode = immediate > queue_depth = 2048 > format = ascii > network_retry_time = 100 This is probably not your problem but managed is the normal setting for format.
