Hello,my friend
I have setup fail2ban
/etc/fail2ban/jail.conf
[sasl-iptables]
enabled = true
filter = sasl
backend = polling
action = iptables[name=sasl, port=smtp, protocol=tcp]
sendmail-whois[name=sasl, [email protected]]
logpath = /var/log/mail.log
maxretry = 3
when I use command
fail2ban-client status
Status
|- Number of jail: 4
`- Jail list: postfix-tcpwrapper, ssh-ipfw, ssh-iptables,
ssh-tcpwrapper
there is no sasl, Does it working?
Thanks for your time
TOM
