I got the fail2ban from epel. There were a number of issues relating to using a log file... logwatch was looking for both fail2ban and fail2ban.log logrotate file fail2ban added looked for fail2ban.log and then reset itself to syslog fail2ban itself went to syslog, over riding its fail2ban.log. took a while, but I use /var/log/fail2ban now, that finally worked through logrotates and logwatch.

I want to use fail2ban on CentOS 6 to monitor Apache with the standard default logfile format ("combined"). Has anyone here succeeded in doing so? The format has the IP at the start of the line, followed by two dashes (if no authentication) and THEN the timestamp. What I've read on the fail2ban wiki seems to say that the timestamp must ALWAYS be at the start of the line, followed by

Tonight I added fail2ban to one of my webservers to test it out. Here is my step by step, as best as I could figure it out...documentation a bit sketchy. feel free to add anything to it or suggest changes. I tried to set it up to deal with ssh, http authentication, dovecot, ftp, and postfix I could find no working example for centos 6 and there is no fail2ban book available to peruse. So,

I recall others on this list are using fail2ban to block brute force login attempts. Packages are from the EPEL repo, so I'm just sharing some knowledge here. For about two months now I've had a CentOS 6.3 box (web host) in production that occasionally is ftp brute forced. Oddly enough fail2ban wasn't nabbing the perpetrators. I found that the iptables chain for VSFTP isn't

Copy dovecot-pop3imap.conf to dovecot-pop3imap.local.? Edit dovecot-pop3imap.local and add to the failregex: dovecot:.+auth failed.+rip=<HOST> Then run: fail2ban-regex /var/log/dovecot.log /etc/fail2ban/filter.d/dovecot-pop3imap.local and see if you get any matches.

Have you tried just using the the filter dovecot.conf come with the fail2ban? # cat /etc/fail2ban/filter.d/dovecot.conf ...... failregex = ^%(__prefix_line)s(?:%(__pam_auth)s(?:\(dovecot:auth\))?:)?\s+authentication failure; logname=\S* uid=\S* euid=\S* tty=dovecot ruser=\S* rhost=<HOST>(?:\s+user=\S*)?\s*$ ^%(__prefix_line)s(?:pop3|imap)-login: (?:Info: )?(?:Aborted

Been working on fail2ban, and trying to make it work with plain Jane install of Centos 7 Machine is a HP running 2 Quad core Xeons, 16 gig or ram and 1 plus TB of disk space. Very generic and vanilla. Current available epel repo version is fail2ban-0.9.1 Looking at the log file, fail2ban starts and stops fine, there isn't output though showing any login attempts being restricted.

This should probably be a bug report for the fail2ban EPEL maintainer, the problem was introduced in version 0.9.3 >From the file /etc/fail2ban/action.d/iptables-common.conf ... # Option: lockingopt # Notes.: Option was introduced to iptables to prevent multiple instances from # running concurrently and causing irratic behavior. -w was introduced # in iptables 1.4.20, so

Just a random stab in the dark, but CEntOS6 was iptables, and CentOS7 is firewalld. They take different fail2ban packages. CentOS6 = fail2ban CentOS7 = fail2ban-firewalld Are you sure you are running the correct fail2ban package for your firewall? (I screwed this up myself before I noticed and fixed it...) Good Luck!
