.Blogpath
filename(s) of the log files to be monitored. Globs -- paths containing * and ? or [0-9] -- can be used however only the files that exist at start up matching this glob pattern will be considered.
Ensure syslog or the program that generates the log file isn't configured to compress repeated log messages to "\fI*last message repeated 5 time*s\fR" otherwise it will fail to detect. This is called \fIRepeatedMsgReduction\fR in rsyslog and should be \fIOff\fR.
.TP
.Baction
action(s) from \fI/etc/fail2ban/action.d/\fR without the \fI.conf\fR/\fI.local\fR extension. Arguments can be passed to actions to override the default values from the [Init] section in the action file. Arguments are specified by [name=value,name2=value]. Values can also be quoted. More that one action can be specified (in separate lines).
