#36296: OS X Mountain Lion has no /var/log/secure.log for sshguard to read

     Type:  defect       |     Status:  new
 Priority:  Normal       |  Milestone:
Component:  ports        |    Version:  2.1.2
 Keywords:               |       Port:  sshguard
-------------------------+--------------------------------
 For some reason, Apple has rolled up a lot of logging into syslog,
 including all the ssh stuff. Consequently, there is no /var/log/secure.log
 for sshguard to read. The current sshguard defaults results in logs that
 look like:

 Sep 23 03:39:01 foo com.apple.launchd[1] (org.macports.sshguard):
 Throttling respawn: Will start in 10 seconds
 Sep 23 03:39:11 foo.bar.com sshguard[64933]: File '/var/log/secure.log'
 vanished while adding!
 Sep 23 03:39:11 foo com.apple.launchd[1] (org.macports.sshguard):
 Throttling respawn: Will start in 10 seconds
 Sep 23 03:39:21 foo.bar.com sshguard[65369]: File '/var/log/secure.log'
 vanished while adding!

 The fix is to remove the line '-l /var/log/secure.log' from
 /opt/local/etc/sshguard/options, but I'm not sure if looking only at
 /var/log/system.log will capture all the stuff sshguard needs for
 filtering.
