You'll need to run `make install` because SSHGuard looks for the helper
script sshg-fw in PREFIX.

However, you can install to a different prefix:

$ ./configure --prefix /tmp/sshguard
$ make install

SSHGuard will be installed using /tmp/sshguard as a prefix, which means
you don't even have to be root to run `make install`. To test, running
/tmp/sshguard/sbin/sshguard will suffice.

As root, run:

# ipfw table 22 flush

If this results in an error we'll have to troubleshoot.

Best,
Kevin
