Thanks, it's a great tutorial,

it would be better to add a line for geting read permission to 'logstash-forwarder.key' file in elk-master too,

chmod -R 774 /etc/logstash/ssl/logstash-forwarder.key

I couldn't connect to this file from elk-clinet without read permission,

 

Thanks

Was there any reason for you to choose 2 ubuntu and then 1 centos server? Wouldn't it make more sense to use the same operating system for easier maintenance?

This is a good tutorial, but is anyone else having issues with the the NGINX proxy?  When I go to the page, all I get is the "Welcome to NGINX!" page.  It's not redirecting and I can't see where I made any errors in the configuration files or anything.  Is there a step that's missing that I would know if I was an NGINX expert?

This is so very late but you need to disable or remove the default NGINX site :)
