Does anybody have experience with connecting osquery to amazon MSK via the kafka producer logger plugin? I am facing an error, [2021-08-04 014035,823] WARN [Consumer clientId=consumer-console-consumer-41657-1, groupId=console-consumer-41657] Connection to node -1 (<name>.kafka.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/<ip>:9092) terminated during authentication. This may happen due to any of the following reasons: (1) Authentication failed due to invalid credentials with brokers older than 1.0.0, (2) Firewall blocking Kafka TLS traffic (eg it may only allow HTTPS traffic), (3) Transient network issue. (org.apache.kafka.clients.NetworkClient) [2021-08-04 014035,823] WARN [Consumer clientId=consumer-console-consumer-41657-1, groupId=console-consumer-41657] Bootstrap broker <name>.kafka.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com:9092 (id: -1 rack: null) disconnected (org.apache.kafka.clients.NetworkClient) this happens when i try to connect using the non tls broker. When i use the tls broker which listens on port 9094, nothing happens. I dont think its a firewall issue since i opened all ports. my flagfile looks like this:

I wish I could help out but I've never used Kafka before 😢
