I am trying to send logs to my graylog log server and I am getting I am
sending a test message from my syslog server to graylog load-balancer and I
can connect server using netcat and port 12201, but when I send an echo
test message 205 bytes sent 0 bytes received. Nothing shows up in graylog.
I checked the my logs and I am seeing this error message Connection failed;
fd=‘14’, server=‘AF_INET(18.213.45.65:12201)’, local=‘AF_INET(0.0.0.0:0)’,
error='Permission denied (13)
