xsrv VS serilog-sinks-seq

Yes, OpenLDAP installed from this ansible role

It's dead easy to use TCP/SSL instead of UDP to forward logs. Example rsyslog config

I use rsyslog for that since it's the default in Debian. Configuring forwarding is very simple, a single file in /etc/rsyslog.d/forwarding.conf [1]. Note that this setup uses TLS to encrypt messages so you need to create the relevant certificates (I use self-signed certs). Unencrypted TCP or UDP is simpler, but less secure.

preseed.cfg contains a few basic options needed to setup the OS [1]

I do this with https://github.com/nodiscc/xsrv/tree/master/roles/openldap + https://github.com/nodiscc/xsrv/tree/master/roles/samba. It's just a standalone samba server + LDAP auth for users, no DC or anything like that, so I'm not sure this is what you're looking for.

This ansible role (check the tasks/ directory) gives a good breakdown of what is needed to setup a basic LDAP server and authentication service

I use samba in standalone mode with or without LDAP auth https://github.com/nodiscc/xsrv/tree/master/roles/samba

I dont know why you want to use Graylog, but just fyi maybe https://datalust.co/seq is a alternative.

You could use something like Seq to stream all the logs back to you.

Highlights:

* Grafana and Loki seems to be favorite

* https://datalust.co/seq is the easiest to deploy (single container)

* https://github.com/tstack/lnav CLI based tool

https://datalust.co/seq (my employer) uses a custom database built with Rust. We are about to remove the last C# database code because, as the previous commenter noted, garbage collection and databases don't mix.

Over the next few years I expect we will see a lot of new databases written in Rust.

I know I’m a little late to the game, but check out Seq. If you use Docker, you can deploy Seq and Seq-input-gelf Docker containers, set gelf as the default logging driver in your daemon.json, and point it at you Seq instance. That’s pretty much it. Seq also accepts a bunch of other log inputs, like Greylog, for things that don’t run in Docker.

There are several popular logging servers that store and process structured log data. The ones I currently know are SigNoz, Seq, New Relic and Kibana. The latter is, in a nutshell, a user interface to visualize Elasticsearch data.

Another for Seq.
