Hi  Team

We have ran the scan for debian 8 using below command

*oscap  xccdf eval   --profile
xccdf_org.ssgproject.content_profile_anssi_np_nt28_high --report
report.html  ssg-debian8-ds.xml*

Got alerts as below ,

To Fixed it we ran the below commands as suggested by the report

* apt-get install syslog-ng-core

* systemctl status syslog-ng

● syslog-ng.service - System Logger Daemon
   Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/syslog-ng.service; enabled)
   Active: active (running) since Tue 2018-08-28 15:04:28 IST; 23h ago

But even after we ran the scan after fixing it  Report still shows as

Ensure syslog-ng is installed -> FAILED
Ensure Syslog-ng Service ->  FAILED


Is there any reason for that ?
