Comment 4 for bug 1798055

I kind of suspect it will work, but before enablilng it by default in
freebsd i'd like to know that it does.

Can you do:
a.) install rsyslog package
b.) add config to /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/rsyslog.cfg with something like:

rsyslog:
   configs:
        - content: "*.* @@192.0.2.1:10514"
          filename: 01-example.conf

c.) run cloud-init single --name=rsyslog --frequency=always

then verify if you have the expected content in
/etc/rsyslog.d/01-example.conf and that rsyslog was restarted.

if it gets restarted and reads those configs, then i'm really happy to
enable it.
