Docker: Ubuntu 16.04 container for testing

These notes are mainly for prepping a container for rsyslog testing, but generic enough to use as a basic Ubuntu 16.04 base

1. sudo docker pull ubuntu:16.04
2. sudo docker run -ti -p 2222:22 ubuntu:16.04
3. apt-get update
4. apt-get install software-properties-common
5. apt-add-repository ppa:adiscon/v8-stable
6. apt-get update
7. apt-get install subversion git-core python2.7 tmux nano
8. apt-get install openssh-client openssh-server
9. apt-get install rsyslog rsyslog-relp rsyslog-omstdout rsyslog-mmjsonparse rsyslog-mmnormalize rsyslog-imptcp
10. chown -R syslog /var/log/
11. service rsyslog restart
