I noticed the same problem; although I was primarily worried about not
seeing ssh login failures in the security report. I discovered it was
because "fail" no longer appears in the auth.log line on my FreeBSD
6.1 installation:
Aug 11 08:39:20 hostname sshd[48839]: error: PAM: authentication error
for someuser from somewhere.pacbell.net
I simply modified the grep in 800.loginfail to read:
n=$(catmsgs | grep -ia "^$yesterday.*\(fail\|authentication error\)" |
tee /dev/stderr | wc -l)
