Comment:
From `/usr/bin/sshguard`:

```
eval $tailcmd | $libexec/sshg-parser | \
    $libexec/sshg-blocker $flags | $BACKEND &
```

does runit allow nesting log dirs within log dirs? if so you may be able to get runit to set those pipes up on your behalf.

Comment:
I don't know if I'm right, but I guess that because runit does not have a concept of dependencies `iptables check` was waiting until service `iptables` is started.

Comment:
I fixed my problem. It turned out that `iptables` (service in runit) was not running. When deleted check for it from `/etc/sv/sshguard-socklog/run`, sshguard run successfully. 

In my opinion the biggest fail was that runit did not show any useful information. I would expect to see some kind of tip that dependency was at fault here. By the way, somehow check for iptables timed out?

You can close issue.
