[Sshguard-users] fifo stops receiving output

[Adam C. <ada...@be...>]

greetings,
I'm adding sshguard (r1.5rc2) to a system running Ubuntu (8.1 / intrepid)

Configure for iptables, looks good
Built from sources, looks good
Configure /etc/syslog.conf as below:

#  /etc/syslog.conf	Configuration file for syslogd.
auth.info;authpriv.info		|/var/log/sshguard.fifo
auth,authpriv.*			/var/log/auth.log
*.*;auth,authpriv.none		-/var/log/syslog

Restart syslog
/etc/init.d/sysklogd restart

Start sshguard
initctl start sshguard

sshguard works fine as FIFO receives messages

But after a while...FIFO stops receiving messages and so sshguard gets no input to scan.  This seems like an Ubuntu issue but could there be something wrong with my syslog.conf?

thanks
Adam
