[Fixed] Fail2ban - Webmin

Hi
I trying to setup fail2ban for my webmin service.. - I have followed this guide
Im running ubutnu 22.04 and ufw firewall

My "/etc/fail2ban/jail.local" have this config in it.

Code:

[webmin-auth]
enabled = true
port    = 9966
filter  = webmin-auth
logpath  = /var/log/auth.log
bantime  = 1d
findtime  = 10m
maxretry = 3

But the firewall don't ban the IP

What can be wrong?

regards Thomas

The problem is fixed:

Code:

nano action.d/ufw.conf

change:

Code:

ufw insert <insertpos> <blocktype> from <ip> to <destination> $app

to:

Code:

ufw prepend <blocktype> from <ip> to <destination> $app

 

Try "ConfigServer Security & Firewall" which is an integral part of Webmin.
You can finely tune many items there.
