Hi,
If you define LOGFILES="/var/log/auth.log /var/log/proftpd/proftpd.log" in
> /etc/default/sshguard , the script fails with message "No valid logs to
> scan by sshguard, exiting".
>
> This is because of this line in /etc/init.d/sshguard:
>
> for logfile in "$LOGFILES"; do [ -r "$logfile" ] &&
> DAEMON_ARGS="$DAEMON_ARGS -l $logfile" && LOGS=$((LOGS+1)); done
>
> Fix is to change that line to

> DAEMON_ARGS="$DAEMON_ARGS -l $logfile" && LOGS=$((LOGS+1)); done

Thanks to report it.
This bug was fixed in sshguard 1.5-3 in unstable. From Debian changelog
entry:
* Avoid to run incorrectly the for-loop in init script
+ Thanks for the patch to Alexander Noack
However I am a bit busy but I will work on squeeze-backport the next weeks.
Kind regards,
