[SSHGuard-users] syslog-ng v3.5 with sshguard

[jungle B. <jun...@gm...>]

Hi All,

I'd like to use sshguard on a pine64 soc system with linux kernel
3.10.102-2-pine64-longsleep.

I have installed syslog-ng v3.5 from apt packages and I'm attempting
to configure sshguard + syslog-ng per this page:
http://www.sshguard.net/docs/setup/#syslog-ng


I believe there may be an issue with this line:

log { source(src); filter(f_sshguard); destination(sshguard); };

When that line is present in /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf, I get this
when restarting syslog-ng:

sudo /etc/init.d/syslog-ng restart
Restarting syslog-ng (via systemctl): syslog-ng.serviceJob for
syslog-ng.service failed. See 'systemctl status syslog-ng.service' and
'journalctl -xn' for details.
 failed!

$ sudo systemctl status syslog-ng.service

Anyone have a valid log entry I can use for syslog 3.5?

Thanks!
