Hi! I try to configure Fail2ban for PureFTP on my server thanks to the ISPConfig Manual but fail2ban service don't restart after modification. I have some question: 1) On my server (Ubuntu Server 10.10 x64) , the file /etc/fail2ban/jail.local don't exist so i have copied /etc/fail2ban/jail.conf and rename in jail.local and i have modified this file. This manipulation is correct? 2)the file /etc/fail2ban/filter.d/pureftpd.conf is already exist on my computer, so i have try with this file but fail2ban don't restart and i have try with a new file but same result, fail2ban fail to restart. What is the correct configuration for a Ubuntu Server 10.10 x64 configured thanks to the The Perfect Server – Ubuntu 10.10 [ISPConfig 3] Post. Thank you! Ps: one more time, sorry for my very approximative english! Iross
No, please create an new file with this contents in it: Code: [pureftpd] enabled = true port = ftp filter = pureftpd logpath = /var/log/syslog maxretry = 3 What's the error message in /var/log/fail2ban.log?
Ok i have fix the problem: I have make a mistake, the file that already exist on Ubuntu 10.10 x64 is Code: /etc/fail2ban/filter.d/pure-ftpd.conf and not Code: /etc/fail2ban/filter.d/pureftpd.conf So i have created a file with the good name "pureftpd.conf" and file2ban restarted correctly. Sorry for the mistake (I need to use more cut and copy to avoid mistake!)and thanks for your help! Iross
