Research direction

Reproduce the report on Rocky Linux 9.7 with kernel 5.14.0-611.30.1.el9_7.x86_64, using the same configuration that worked on Rocky Linux 8. Compare Sysmon event 3 handling for TCP and UDP connections; done means TCP connections are detected as well as UDP.

Description

Hi,

I am using Rocky Linux 9.7 (Blue Onyx), kernel: 5.14.0-611.30.1.el9_7.x86_64. I used sysmon on my rocky 8 machine with same config file to log everything and it worked fine. Since I migrated to rocky 9, sysmon event 3 is not picking up TCP network connections only showing upd.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
