Thanks. Yes, I was trying to get rsyslog to send JSON to logstash and
I have tried that template.
A bit more investigation though and it turns out that the firewall on
the logstash server was only letting through tcp packets and it needs
udp. Now I've fixed that, they appear to be talking to each other, but
it certainly doesn't seem to be logging everything.
Progress of sorts!
