Hah, that one is funny :) Good catch Dhanushka. Basically what what these rules are trying to achieve is to have logging on your system. So either of those is enough to fulfill that.

If you don't mind, could you create PR removing one of the pairs from the profile [1]? I am not Debian user, so I don't know which one is default/recommended. It should be in line with OS recommendation. Just beware - if the recommended syslog is syslog-ng, then it's probably appropriate to also remove all rsyslog-related rules in other ANSSI levels (I have seen some in `average`)

Thanks,
Marek

Hi  Team

When i'm using* xccdf_org.ssgproject.content_profile_anssi_np_nt28_high *profile in Debian 8 *ssg-debian8-ds.xml*
in version scap-security-guide-0.1.40

it says

Result  fail

Title   Enable rsyslog Service
Rule    xccdf_org.ssgproject.content_rule_service_rsyslog_enabled

But when i'm installing rsyslog   Debian 8 System automatically removes the syslog-ng package and vice versa . So one of the conditions will always failed
