I would also run
fail2ban-client status ssh-ddos
to make sure that it is up ;-)

that would be difficult - he is in Europe and I am in the states
;-)

Actually multiple port banning should not be difficult at all...
hm... might be worth creating iptables-multiport action... hm...
actually README multiport entry is a bit outdated since 0.6 version of
fail2ban... since now we have nice infrastructure for different actions
- I will add iptables-multiport ;-) hold on... actually there is an
  issue which forbids easy multiport adoption at the moment... I will
  buzz upstream and I think we will come up with some nice solution ;)
  For now I would suggest to make action 
  iptables-noport
  where to remove --dport completely - so you will check all the traffic
  and ban hosts completely... or manually craft iptables-sshports and
  hardcode ports into iptables rules as 
  -m multiport --dports 22,443

for me it would be helpful if you send me smth like

zgrep "Did not receive identification string from" /var/log/auth.log*gz  | grep 
-v UNKNOWN | awk '{print $12;}' | sort | uniq -c | sort -n -r | awk '{print 
$1;}'

(mention that I am to use awk not cut -d " " since that one screwed
your results -- "  " would be split twice...)

That would give me idea what maxretry should be (I hope)

or may be just send me those all lines - so I could see how they are
arranged in time
