This uses subprocess.Popen, polling until `timeout` seconds has passed or the command has exit. If the command has not exited, fail2ban then sends SIGTERM, and if this is unsuccessful, SIGKILL. The timeout can be changed for an entire action via action [Init] options, or via jail.conf override, or fail2ban-client. The default timeout period is 60 seconds. |

================================================================================
Fail2Ban (version 0.9.0a0) 20??/??/??
================================================================================
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 in fail2ban(1) manpage and on the website http://www.fail2ban.org
Installation:
-------------
Required:
>=python-2.4 or >=python-3.0 (http://www.python.org)
Optional:
pyinotify:
>=linux-2.6.13
>=python-2.4
>=pyinotify-0.8.3 (https://github.com/seb-m/pyinotify)
Gamin:
>=gamin-0.0.21 (http://www.gnome.org/~veillard/gamin)
To install, just do:
> tar xvfj fail2ban-0.8.8.tar.bz2
> cd fail2ban-0.8.8
> 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:
> fail2ban-client -h
to see if everything is alright. You should always use fail2ban-client and
never call fail2ban-server directly.
Configuration:
--------------
You can configure Fail2Ban using the files in /etc/fail2ban. It is possible to
configure the server using commands sent to it by fail2ban-client. The
available commands are described in the fail2ban-client(1) manpage. Also see
fail2ban(1) manpage for further references and find even more documentation on
the website: http://www.fail2ban.org
