=============================================================
Fail2Ban (version 0.8.3) 2008/07/17
=============================================================
Fail2Ban scans log files like /var/log/pwdfail and bans IP
that makes too many password failures. It updates firewall
rules to reject the IP address. These rules can be defined by
the user. Fail2Ban can read multiple log files such as sshd
or Apache web server ones.
This README is a quick introduction to Fail2ban. More
documentation, FAQ, HOWTOs are available on the project
website: http://www.fail2ban.org

> tar xvfj fail2ban-0.8.3.tar.bz2
> cd fail2ban-0.8.3
> python setup.py install
This will install Fail2Ban into /usr/share/fail2ban. The
executable scripts are placed into /usr/bin.
It is possible that Fail2ban is already packaged for your
distribution. In this case, you should use it.
Fail2Ban should be correctly installed now. Just type:
