Just cant get it working. Running on windows I see the syslog messages coming in with wireshark. I see the netxms process listening on 514/UDP but I cant see the messages in Syslog Monitor Window. Somehow it is filtered by netxms but I cant see where.

is the sending device existing as a node in NetXMS?

Yes.

And there also no entries in 'View - Evenlog' ('Syslog Monitor' is only the live view)?

Is syslog activated in Server Configuration? (EnableSyslogDaemon = 1)
Check also what you have in the Server Configuration Value 'SyslogNodeMatchingPolicy', default is '0', so the NetXMS syslog server tries first matching incoming syslog-messages by source IP address (check that incoming messages come from primary IP address of this node in NetXMS) and than by 'Host Name' field in the syslog-message itself.
Maybe that helps finding the cause.
