Hello, in attachment see my_etc-fail2ban.tar.gz.
I only added (and edit) my own jail.local, as recommended.
It had worked until I saw that it wasn't yesterday!
IMPORTANT:
this morning I added my own (temporary) solution, and it works now but I'm
not understanding why the fail2ban-server doesn't run by himself at boot:
I'm not remembering having seen Python packages passing during my last
Lenny update. Feel free to check!
Temp solution:
adding
#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/python /usr/bin/fail2ban-server -b -s
/var/run/fail2ban/fail2ban.sock
in for ex.: /etc/init.d/force-fail2ban-to-start
then doing
ln -s /etc/init.d/force-fail2ban-to-run
/etc/rcS.d/S99force-fail2ban-to-start
By hand: it starts. After rebooting: it starts too.
