Hi,

I am having some troubles with getting TLS to work.
Most guides and examples available implement a CA and have separate private
keys for both the client and the receiving server, however this is more
than I currently need. At this moment I would just like to send over my
logs encrypted without to much verification.

My setup is as follows:
A logstash server listening on TCP port X. In it's input I specified a
private key and cert of the logserver, so it's listening for connections
encrypted using the cert.

Part of the client config currently looks like this:
if $programname == 'Apache' then {
        action(Name="ApacheToLogstash"
                Type="omfwd"
                Target="IPOFLOGSTASH"
                Port="X"
                Protocol="tcp"
                Action.ResumeRetryCount="-1"
                queue.Type="LinkedList"
                queue.FileName="queueApacheToLogstash"
                queue.SaveOnShutdown="on"
                queue.MaxDiskSpace="500m")
        stop
}

Can someone please help me to get the rsyslog config right so the messages
will be sent to my Logstash server?

Regards,
Stan
