Hi, A recent FreeBSD ports change upgrades sshguard to 1.5. I'm not sure about other variants, but with sshguard-ipfw at least, from what I can tell, installing the port erroneously comments-out the following existing line from /etc/syslog.conf: auth.info;authpriv.info | exec /usr/local/sbin/sshguard To get sshguard-ipfw to work again you need to uncomment the above line and restart syslogd, eg. "sudo service syslogd restart". Incidentally version 1.5 is somewhat more "noisy" than the previous version, sending this to /var/log/messages once every few hours: Jun 16 01:00:00 blizzard sshguard[7655]: Got exit signal, flushing blocked addresses and exiting... Jun 16 01:00:00 blizzard sshguard[8080]: Started successfully [(a,p,s)=(40, 420, 1200)], now ready to scan. (obviously a separate issue to the syslog.conf problem above) Regards Andrew
