|
|
- Almost a complete rewrite :) Fail2ban design is really better (IMHO). There is
|
|
a lot of new features
|
|
- Client/Server architecture
|
|
- Multithreading. Each jail has its own threads: one for the log reading and
|
|
another for the actions
|
|
- Execute several actions
|
|
- Split configuration files. They are more readable and easy to use
|
|
- failregex uses group (<host>) now. This feature was already present in the
|
|
Debian package
|
|
- lots of things...
|
|
|
|
ver. 0.6.1 (2006/03/16) - stable

|
Börjesson
|
|
- Removed 192.168.0.0/16 from ignoreip. Attacks could also come from the local
|
|
network.
|
|
- Robust startup: if iptables module does not get fully initialized after
|
|
startup of fail2ban, fail2ban will do "maxreinit" attempts to initialize its
|
|
own firewall. It will sleep between attempts for "polltime" number of seconds
|
|
(closes Debian: #334272). Thanks to Yaroslav Halchenko
|
|
- Added "interpolations" in fail2ban.conf. This is provided by the ConfigParser
|
|
module. Old configuration files still work. Thanks to Yaroslav Halchenko
|
|
- Added initial support for hosts.deny and shorewall. Need more testing. Please
|
|
test. Thanks to kojiro from Gentoo forum for hosts.deny support

|
|
sent out by fail2ban (closes: #330311)
