Fail2Ban comes out-of-the-box ready to read many standard log files, such as
those for sshd and Apache, and is easy to configure to read any log file you
choose, for any error you choose.

ah.. thanks for the corrections.
Great to see this added though, and that it's alive upstream - I wrote a recipe
for fail2ban a few years ago (around the 0.8.4 times) and then noticed it had
a number of security issues and so I dropped it. I just found I still have the
recipe
and I was doing a few things like sed'ing the hardcoded paths in the config
and setting CONFFILES that you don't have here, so I could send you a patch
afterwards with those tweaks if you like.
sure.
kind regards,
Armin
Cheers,
Paul
