I'm trying to get failed log-in attempts setup to go to my syslog or
messages file (/var/log) and have had zero success.  Openssh 2.9 on
freeBSD4.4 stable

I must be missing something in the syslog.conf, so i put in the line

*.*,cron.none                                   /var/log/syslog

no spaces, only tabs...then 'touch /var/log/syslog'

I then tail the syslog file and fail to log in from 3 sources outside and
see nothing.

sshd_config loggin settings have been from default of
# Logging
SyslogFacility AUTH
LogLevel INFO

I then tried:
# Logging
SyslogFacility AUTH
LogLevel VERBOSE

I then tried:
# Logging
SyslogFacility AUTH
LogLevel DEBUG

Not sure what it is i'm missing.  I've HUP'ed every service, and read what
I could, but it sitll fails to log.  Is this not a feature? or am I just
missing something simple?
