Hi Yves,

I believe this is as simple as using the
findtime  = 3600
in the jail.conf

the 3600 is the amount of seconds of accumulative attempts. so as long as you do not have (in my example of 3600) more than 3 (if your using maxretry = 3) attempts incorrect in the 5 minutes(3600 seconds) then you will not get banned.

I hope this explains it a little easier.
