interesting
permanent banning was added in 0.6.1:

- Added permanent banning. Set banTime to a negative value to
  enable this feature (-1 is perfect). Thanks to Mannone

so dapper version 0.6.0-3 is not intended to have that one

I checked dapper version and it has it set to 600, so you must have used
config from newer version (or changed manually) -- so it is not
fail2ban's fault :-P

well - do you mean 0.6.2? I don't think that such a jump (from 0.6.0 to
0.6.2) would be ok... may be someone who knows ubuntu policies better
can correct me and do that for fail2ban...

in any case - I think that people should use 0.7.x branch of fail2ban
which probably would become stable very soon (and it is the one which is
present in Debian etch) -- it is better designed and organized.

that is ok -- emails are bad as for describing emotions and intent so I
am trying to take them having positive intent as the base ;-)
