# systemctl restart systemd-journald # ll /run/log
# ll /var/log/
# su - user1
# mkdir /home/wallah/container-logserver/
# mkdir /var/log/journal
# exit
# cp -r /var/log/journal/ /home/user1/container-logserver/ # chown -R user1:user1 /home/user1/container-logserver/ # systemctl restart systemd-journald
# reboot
after bootup do ssh to user1 and continue:

A

podman login regisrty.redhat.io # username:
# password:
# podman search rsyslog
# podman pull registry.redhat.io/rhel8/rsyslog # podman image list

# podman container list # podman ps
# mkdir -p ~/.config/systemd/user
# cd .config/systemd/user/ # loginctl enable-linger
# loginctl show-user user1
# podman generate systemd –name logserver -f -n # systemctl –user daemon-reload

‘in this step, we went to host and one time we rebooted it’
# systemctl –user enable –now container-logserver.service # systemctl –user start –now container-logserver.service
