.SH NAME |
|
fail2ban \- a set of server and client programs to limit brute force authentication attempts. |
|
.SH DESCRIPTION |
|
Fail2Ban consists of a client, server and configuration files to limit |
|
brute force authentication attempts. |
|
|
|
The server program \fBfail2ban-server\fR is responsible for monitoring |
|
log files and issuing ban/unban commands. It gets configured through |
|
a simple protocol by \fBfail2ban-client\fR, which can also read |
|
configuration files and issue corresponding configuration commands to |
|
the server. |
|
|
|
For details on the configuration of fail2ban see the jail.conf(5) |
|
manual page. A jail (as specified in jail.conf) couples filters and |
|
actions definitions for any given list of files to get monitored. |
|
|
|
For details on the command-line options of fail2ban-server see the |
|
fail2ban-server(1) manual page. |
|
|
|
For details on the command-line options and commands for configuring |
|
the server via fail2ban-client see the fail2ban-client(1) manual page. |
|
|
|

|
fail2ban-regex program may be of use and its manual page is |
