Hi, I have been running f2b on a Debian Stable server for a long time. Yesterday I upgraded the server to Debian Testing and with that came fail2ban 0.9.6-1. For starters the service would not start, but I got that fixed:
systemctl status fail2ban.service ● fail2ban.service - Fail2Ban Service Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/fail2ban.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: active (running) since Sun 2017-02-19 15:32:43 CET; 18s ago Docs: man:fail2ban(1) Main PID: 2019 (fail2ban-server) CGroup: /system.slice/fail2ban.service └─2019 /usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/fail2ban-server -s /var/run/fail2ban/fail2ban.sock -p /var/run/fail2ban/fail2ban.pid -x -b Feb 19 15:32:43 vmd16363.contabo.host systemd[1]: Starting Fail2Ban Service... Feb 19 15:32:43 vmd16363.contabo.host fail2ban-client[2016]: 2017-02-19 15:32:43,786 fail2ban.server [2017]: INFO Starting Fail2ban v0.9.6 Feb 19 15:32:43 vmd16363.contabo.host fail2ban-client[2016]: 2017-02-19 15:32:43,787 fail2ban.server [2017]: INFO Starting in daemon mode Feb 19 15:32:43 vmd16363.contabo.host systemd[1]: Started Fail2Ban Service. But f2b does not ban anything and /var/log/fail2ban.log stays empty. I spent the whole day with trying different things, startet from scratch with fresh configs, but no go. iptables -S says: -P INPUT ACCEPT -P FORWARD ACCEPT -P OUTPUT ACCEPT -N f2b-owncloud -N f2b-sshd -A INPUT -p tcp -m multiport --dports 80,443 -j f2b-owncloud -A INPUT -p tcp -m multiport --dports 22 -j f2b-sshd -A f2b-owncloud -j RETURN -A f2b-sshd -j RETURN My very basic jail.local has: [DEFAULT] # Ban hosts for one hour: bantime = 3600 banaction = iptables-multiport [sshd] enabled = true If you need other logfiles or output of commands, just ask. I have no clue what else I could try. Thanks for any help. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Fail2ban-users mailing list Fail2ban-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fail2ban-users
