Ok, I've spent almost two hours searching for this and can't find it.
I know about the volatile storage in journald to avoid using disk and I
know about the forwardtosyslog option that should forward things on.
However, I can't find anything about how to set things up so that
rsyslog is not *reading* from the journal but actually seeing things
forwarded to it.
The end goal is that I want journald to not write or store anything
(storage=none) so that it doesn't eat RAM to maintain the journal or
just thrash the hard drive with low level debug statements.
Is this a limitation of rsyslog with journald? If so I have no problems
switching to syslog-ng.
