whenever you keep old config file during upgrade, don't you have also a .dpkg-dist file? so in our case it should be /etc/fail2ban.conf.dpkg-dist? That one should have proper description
Besides that there is a /usr/share/doc/fail2ban/examples/ and if you zgrep files in that directory you should have found a proper config file (by default fail2ban.conf.iptables.gz is the one which is used) which gets installed during installation/upgrade Since the requested information is present in the distributed package, I would like to close the bug. P.S. I will close this bug by adding pointer to /usr/share/doc/fail2ban/examples/ config files as the sources of up-to-date config P.S.S. I believe in the future, config file will not be as self explanatory as at the moment. Then, may be, man page or some documentation will be be provided to highlight configuration issues -- .-. =------------------------------ /v\ ----------------------------= Keep in touch // \\ (yoh@|www.)onerussian.com Yaroslav Halchenko /( )\ ICQ#: 60653192 Linux User ^^-^^ [175555] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
