Thank you Steve. This is not quite what I wanted, but it is close enough. I guess a good part of my questions stem from the fact that I did not find the syntax of the conf files (what directives are available, and their syntax). The keywords and syntax seem to be different from what fail2ban-client is using. Anyway, findtime will be fine :-) Yves. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Comprehensive Server Monitoring with Site24x7. Monitor 10 servers for $9/Month.
