Hello,  
I have 2 servers, one with my ELK (each of those in separated container) and second server with my application (Centos). I would like to read logs by Logstash from my server with the application. I don't want to install Filebeat or Logstash on my server with the application. I would like to pull logs by Logstash.  
Any idea? I tried using logstash file plugin with path like myserver$/var/www/awesome\_log.log but not works.

Thanks
