GrayLog Input Usage

I’m completely clueless for letting my plain log files in graylog, I didn’t know how to set it up! My files aren’t in my system but is stored in other system. Is there any way to import all my log files???

Hello @kxN, welcome!

You can use something like NXLog to ship the logs into Graylog. You will need to configure NXLog to read the log files(s) and transmit them to Graylog. You will also need to have Graylog configured to receive the logs by setting up an input and possibly a stream or streams.

A quick Google yielded this conversation on NXLog support forums which might be helpful.
