no log in auth.log and daemon.log

[guilloking]

Hello my people.

I need help with the following, I am using fail2ban, but when I check the logs of proxmox auth.log and daemon.log, they are without a record.

How do I fix this, syslog in webgui if it works.

Register syslog webgui proxmox
pvedaemon[1885456]: authentication failure; rhost=::ffff:5.42.199.51 user=root@pam msg=Authentication failure

Register daemon.log and auth.log no record.

Thx.

This is due to an entry in the optimizations in the journald.conf.

The disabling of writing the journal to syslog causes that no entries will be placed in /var/log/daemon.log or /var/log/auth.log

Simply enable it back by setting option to yes and restart systemd-journald service.

That's it ;)
