non-released versions (which were suggested to the users to overcome
problems reported in bug reports). In particular attention should be paid
to upstream changelog entries
- Several "failregex" and "ignoreregex" are now accepted.
Creation of rules should be easier now.
This is an alternative solution to 'multiple <HOST>' entries fix,
which is not applied to this shipped version - pay cautios if upgrading
from 0.7.5-3~pre?
- Allow comma in action options. The value of the option must
be escaped with " or '.
That allowed to implement requested ability to ban multiple ports
at once (See 373592). README.Debian and jail.conf adjusted to reflect
possible use of iptables-mport
- Now Fail2ban goes in /usr/share/fail2ban instead of
/usr/lib/fail2ban. This is more compliant with FHS.
Patch 00_share_insteadof_lib no longer applied
* Refactored installed by debian package jail.conf:
- Added option banaction which is to incorporate banning agent
(usually some flavor of iptables rule), which can then be easily
overriden globally or per section
- Multiple actions are defined as action_* to serve as shortcuts
