Hi,
I am attempting to setup fail2ban to protect ssh.
So I copied jail.conf to jail.local and edited the file, however fail2ban will
now not run.
:(
========
[root@vuwuniconnect01 fail2ban]# service fail2ban restart
Redirecting to /bin/systemctl restart fail2ban.service
Job for fail2ban.service failed. See 'systemctl status fail2ban.service' and
'journalctl -xn' for details.

Any idea what is going on here?
jail.local changes,
=========
#ssj start
[ssh-iptables]
enabled = true
filter = sshd
action = iptables[name=SSH, port=10, protocol=tcp]
sendmail-whois[name=SSH, [email protected],
[email protected]]
logpath = /var/log/auth.log
maxretry = 5
#ssj finish
=========
regards
Steven
