Well, since I had only one person offer any suggestions (no joy) I'll take another approach...

Is there anyone on this list that is SUCCESSFULLY USING "COMPLAIN" as part of their Fail2Ban setup ?

If so, please contact me so I can confer with you.

Thanks,

Bill

Hello.

I am using Fail2Ban (Version 0.8.6-3wheezy3build0.12.04.1) on Ubuntu Linux 12.04.4, 64-bit Server, Shorewall Firewall.

I noticed that when I use the "COMPLAIN" feature on ANY of my JAILS, then that jail wont run upon starting Fail2Ban.

If I comment out the "Complain" and restart Fail2Ban, then that Jail will run.

For example, if I use the "VSFTPD" jail, with these settings, the VSFTPD Jail wont start.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[vsftpd]

enabled = true
port     = ftp,ftp-data,ftps,ftps-data
filter   = vsftpd
logpath  = /var/log/vsftpd.log
banaction = shorewall
action = complain[logpath=/var/log/vsftpd.log]
maxretry = 3
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

If I comment out the COMPLAIN line like this, then the jail will run.

# action = complain[logpath=/var/log/vsftpd.log]

Any ideas/suggestions ?

Thanks
