Hello List, thanks in advance for any help you can provide..

 

 

I hope you can help me with this.

Fresh Centos 8 installed with fail2ban + firewalld/system

Everything installed from rpm

 

I have installed and configured 2 jails, sshd and postfix-sasl, Firewalld is
running and getting the list of ban ips from fail2ban 

 

ipv4 filter INPUT_direct 0 -p tcp -m multiport --dports 1:65535 -m set
--match-set f2b-postfix-sasl src -j REJECT --reject-with
icmp-port-unreachable

ipv4 filter INPUT_direct 0 -p tcp -m multiport --dports ssh -m set
--match-set f2b-sshd src -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-port-unreachable

 

both jail are detecting and banning ips.. as you can see in the output 64
and 787 ips banned on respectively

 

Status for the jail: postfix-sasl

|- Filter

|  |- Currently failed: 15

|  |- Total failed:     2979

|  `- Journal matches:  _SYSTEMD_UNIT=postfix.service

`- Actions

   |- Currently banned: 64

   |- Total banned:     64

   `- Banned IP list:   46.38.150.37 185.143.73.134 185.143.73.203
46.38.145.253 46.38.145.252 ... [output cut]

 

[root@vps01 ~]# fail2ban-client status sshd

Status for the jail: sshd

|- Filter

|  |- Currently failed: 68

|  |- Total failed:     787

   |- Total banned:     380

   `- Banned IP list:   128.199.142.0 119.29.56.139 210.126.5.91
190.143.39.211 107.159.22.18 181.166.87.8 85.172.11.101 ..[output cut]

 

However the problem is that firewalld after a couple of minutes loosses the
list of ips from fail2ban and it stops blocking and actually no longer bocks
any new ip added to the jail

 

As you can see here from command output postfix-sasl has 0 entries, If I

 

[root@vps01 ~]# ipset list

.. [output cut]

62.94.206.57 timeout 161639

49.232.162.53 timeout 172712

 

 

If fail2ban is restarted, postfix-sasl gets its members and effectively
blocks connections, but after a couple of minutes it goes back to 0 entries
and stops protecting.
