Guide for installing winlogbeat on Windows Server 2016

Elastic Stack Beats
1

I'm trying to get winlogbeats installed on a few of my Windows machines. I have ELK installed on a remote Redhat instance and am wanting the windows logs to be sent to Logstash. The guides I've found either not using Logstash, sending to Elasticsearch instead, or offer guidance that involves running Powershell commands that don't seem to work on my system.

I have gotten as far as adding the service but cannot seem to get any further.

Any assistance appreciated, thanks.

We don't use logstash as a destination, so I can't help there. But when you run the test config just run it as ".\winlogbeat test config"
