I'm thinking I need to revise the SuSEfirewall init scripts to follow up with restarting fail2ban, but then I think fail2ban will need to have a persistent jail after restarting, which I did find online. >I am a big fan of centralized management, so I prefer to do that rather than have static IP addresses on the network (except of course where absolutely essential). >For the OP: maybe a workaround is to assign a fixed IP address from your DHCP server and use a very long lease time?
