Hi All,

How can I reference a custom parameter (not default ones like  <HOST> or <ip>) 
in action file which is taken from filter regex?

Here is the line in filter file:

...
failregex = ^%(__line_prefix)s(\.\d+)?( error:)?\s*client <HOST>#\S+( 
\([\S.]+\))?: (view (internal|external): )?query(?: \(cache\))? 
'(?P<query>\S+)' denied\s*$
...

I need to use the value of <query> in action file but it's not substituted when 
referenced there:

...
actionban = iptables -I fail2ban-<name> .... -m comment --comment "DROP Q 
<query>" -j <blocktype>
...
While debugging I see <query> instead of actual value.

It does work with <ip> though.
I need to filter by other criteria, not by IP...

Any ideas?

Regards,
Constantin
