Re: [SSHGuard-maintainers] sshguard for CentOS 5.3

[Christopher E. <ce...@lc...>]

Hi,
sshguard should also work with sysvinit, you'd just have to write your 
own init script to replace the systemd service file & use FILES instead 
of LOGREADER as the log source.

I have RPM packages of sshguard on COPR, including for CentOS 6 + 
sysvinit, so you could try those:
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/lcts/sshguard/

I see no reason why that package shouldn't be buildable on CentOS 5 as 
well, so that would be a simple way to get a sysvinit-compatible version 
for your older servers - though I've never tried.
