Setting up fail2ban for first time and get the following when starting it. How can I find out where ignoreregex is not defined and the source of the invalid argument errors? ubuntu@server1:~$ sudo fail2ban-client start WARNING 'ignoreregex' not defined in 'Definition'. Using default one: '' ERROR Invalid argument [''] in '' ERROR Invalid argument [''] in '' ERROR Invalid argument [''] in '' ERROR Invalid argument [''] in '' ERROR Invalid argument [''] in '' ERROR Invalid argument [''] in ''
The Definitions are located in /etc/fail2ban/filter.d/*.conf, heres one example: # cat /etc/fail2ban/filter.d/confluence.conf ~ [Definition] failregex = <HOST>.*"GET /login.action ignoreregex = I don't remember the full syntax off hand, but test your regexes with the command(it should be pretty close): fail2ban-regex /path/to/log/file.log /etc/fail2ban/filter.d/test.conf /etc/fail2ban/filter.d/test.conf ^ You need to specify the config file twice which is a bit weird..One for the failregex, one for the ignoreregex..but whatevs..Good luck ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel and developed in partnership with Slashdot Media, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials and more.
