Hi all,

Is Logstash [Forwarder 0.4.0](https://www.elastic.co/downloads/past-releases/logstash-forwarder-0-4-0) supports [Windows2008R2](https://www.elastic.co/support/matrix?q=suppor) server? is there any document regarding how to install it in windows? and how to work with it?

Please avoid posting the same question in multiple places. As I said elsewhere, look into [Filebeat](https://www.elastic.co/products/beats/filebeat) instead.
