Hi,
I have just installed fail2ban on a Debian 10 box. This has my own hand-written
iptables firewall and I have changed it to call f2b-sshd at an appropriate
point.
However I notice that at the top of the INPUT chain this now exists:
f2b-sshd tcp -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 multiport dports
22
So f2b-sshd is called for every incoming packet. I do not want this as I call
f2b-sshd elsewhere.
How do I stop this happening ?
Thanks in advance
I have a couple of other questions that I will ask separately.
Change the rule back and let the default rules set up their own iptables
rule.
All the rule is is a jump to a chain called f2b-sshd. Then f2b will add
its bans to the f2b-sshd chain. There is no problem with all packets
passing through the f2b-sshd chain. At the end of the chain the packets,
if not dropped in the chain, return to go through the next rule in the
INPUT chain.
Nick
