Add /var/log/syslog to Filebeat defaults #18

@widhalmt

Description

@widhalmt

So far we're sollecting /var/log/messages which is ok for rpm based distros with (r)syslog enabled.

We need 2 changes:

  • Add /var/log/syslog to default Filebeat configuration (adding it as a path is totally fine, you don't need an extra "input")
  • Add rsyslog and similar tools to requirements
