Fail2ban configuration
Anyone know a good web site to indicate how to configure fail2ban correctly and secure a server. I am self taught old guy and could use a little help.I would feel better about the whole thing. I check the thing manually using opensshThx in advance.
http://www.howtoforge.com/fail2ban_debian_etch looks like it might contain some useful information.
If you're on Debian or a Debian-based system and it works out for you, please share, 'cause this sounds better than DenyHosts (although without a doubt DenyHosts covers the most important possible attack vector).

Thanks Frenzie..
Yes it is debian based. I have been to the server setup ,but not here i will look it over. it is a little confusing for self taught. I do the DenyHosts thing but for some reason I don't trust it. I don't use php as the buggers are after it all the time. it is just a family server. I have fail2ban configured but it doesn't seem to add to iptables. I think it is because I use ufw. Chinese are real rats, always after it. So far I just read logs and stop them from retrying, at least with that ip.
But if someone gets in I am not sure I would know. In fact I probably wouldn't.
duh old guys aye.well I went through the thing about as he said. I just have a little newer version. restarted it and it is running. Now I will just watch and see if anything from logs gets added to ip tables. You know it is possible I didn't restart it when making a change or something, dumb but possible.if you don't hear from me I am in business if you hear well ....
Thanks again
Thanks again
Neat. I might just try doing the same myself when I've got some more time to play around with these kind of things.
