Package: fail2ban Version: 0.7.5-2etch1 Severity: important
/etc/logrotate.d/fail2ban has the following post-rotate command: invoke-rc.d --quiet fail2ban reload >/dev/null This will however purge the chains, even though some entries might have a bantime that is longer than the log rotation period. http://www.fail2ban.org/wiki/index.php/Fail2ban:Community_Portal suggests: logrotate configuration must run 'fail2ban-client set logtarget /var/log/fail2ban.log' instead of 'invoke-rc.d --quiet fail2ban reload' -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers oldstable APT policy: (500, 'oldstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-etchnhalf.1-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages fail2ban depends on: ii iptables 1.3.6.0debian1-5 administration tools for packet fi ii lsb-base 3.1-23.2etch1 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip ii python 2.4.4-2 An interactive high-level object-o ii python-central 0.5.12 register and build utility for Pyt ii python2.4 2.4.4-3+etch2 An interactive high-level object-o fail2ban recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
