[Sshguard-users] Failed password attempts

[Forrest A. <fo...@fo...>]

It seems reasonable that sshguard should be able to detect failed
password attempts, too.   I realize there is "faillog" on Linux systems
for that, but not on FreeBSD. My system log was jammed with over 1000 of
these entries from last night:
