Hi all, I tried first IRC but it seems again to be serious case of "US channel" so nobody is awake when I am.

But to the matter at hand: I've been trying to use zenoss input but configuration parameters does not seem to affect at all and only way that I managed to logstash even try to connect right host was with AMQP URI.

Even after that connection does not work all I get is connection failures and retries. Please advice 😄
