This is probably a very noobish question. I just starting playing
with an ELK stack I have set up on Centos 7. All the core services
seem to be working but I can't seem to get it to receive syslog
messages. I have both selinux and the firewall turned off (just a
local lab right now). Netstat -nlp does not show anything listening
on port 514.According to the logstash book, I need to add the following syslog
input pluginsyslog {
type => syslog
port => 5514
}
This question would've been a better fit for the Logstash mailing list.

ERROR couldn't connect to tcp socket on 10.1.10.154:514; No connection
could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
nxlog tries to send to port 514 but you've configured Logstash to listen
on port 5514. Either one needs to be adjusted to match the other. Keep
in mind that only root can listen on port 514 (but see below) and
Logstash is typically not run as root.
