I am new to fail2ban. I have a few questions.
* Are there docs that describe how the various parts of fail2ban work
together? The actions and flow of information?
I am interested in setting up a jail for ASSP (Anti-Spam SMTP Proxy);
there is already an entry, [assp], in the default jail.conf. However,
when I ask fail2ban-client, it claims there is no jail:
fail2ban> get assp actions
2018-07-23 15:29:34,541 fail2ban [18662]: ERROR NOK: ('assp',)
Sorry but the jail 'assp' does not exist
The customization entry in jail.d/customisation.local:
[assp]
port = smtp,465,submission
logpath = /usr/local/bin/assp2/logs/maillog.txt
datepattern = %Y-%m-%d_%H:%M:%%S
I assume I have missed something.
* For fail2ban to work with a particular app, are all of jail.conf
entry, a filter entry, and an action entry required?
* ASSP has a rather unique datetime format. The "datepattern" directive
exists to solve this. Where is it allowed? Is its presence required in
the jail definition, filter, and action definitions? Or just one or two?
In which blocks? Does the "%" have to be doubled in the conf files (I
have seen it both ways)?
