Hello,
I have fail2ban 0.9 on Fedora 20. I notice in my log files that when I
start fail2ban I get the following error messages. I think maybe it's
because the /etc/fail2ban/filters.d directory has too much stuff in it...?
But if I try to move things out of there I get some errors about the
regex's. Or do I need to set ulimit? Any advice would be appreciated. I'll
include my fail2ban.conf file after the following errors.

I notice there's a whole lot of stuff in jail.conf that I don't need, but
it says specifically to not edit it so I have not.

Here are the errors:
