Tested on 21.05 and 22.01.a.20211103.2115.

Before changes:

[22.01-DEVELOPMENT][root@gw]/root: ps auxwwd | grep sshguard
root    23563   0.0  0.0  11544   2644  -  Is   11:47   0:00.01 | `-- /bin/sh /usr/local/sbin/sshguard -i /var/run/sshguard.pid
root    24887   0.0  0.0  12084   2648  -  IC   11:47   0:00.00 |   |-- /usr/local/libexec/sshg-blocker -w /usr/local/etc/sshguard.whitelist
root    25161   0.0  0.0  11544   2636  -  I    11:47   0:00.00 |   `-- /bin/sh /usr/local/sbin/sshguard -i /var/run/sshguard.pid
root    19264   0.0  0.0   2544    988  0  R+   11:47   0:00.00 |         `-- grep sshguard

Then:
  1. Check Status / System Logs / Settings // Local Logging; click Save.
  2. Uncheck Status / System Logs / Settings // Local Logging; click Save.

After changes:

[22.01-DEVELOPMENT][root@gw]/root: ps auxwwd | grep sshg
root     9115   0.0  0.0  11248   2552  0  S+   11:53    0:00.00 |         `-- grep sshg

  • Neither restarting or stopping/starting syslogd works.
  • Changing System / Advanced / Admin Access // Login Protection / Pass list and clicking Save does not work.
  • Rebooting the system does work.
