Hello,

I am using ubuntu 12.04LTS with fail2ban version 8.6. My servers are on 
rackspace, behind one of their load balancers.  The rackspace version of ubuntu 
has already added the x-forwarded-for headers to the logformats.  I would like 
to use the filters provided by fail2ban as a base to build on, but since I am 
working behind a proxy, the proxy ip addresses in the x-forwarded-for headers 
do not appear in the errorlog.

I have the api scripts for modifying rackspace’s load balancer filters…But...

It would be nice when the included regex’s trigger if fail2ban could read the 
proxied ip addresses from the corresponding entries in the access logs.  

I also COULD modify the jail information to read the access logs instead of the 
errorlogs, but I would need to modify the filter regex’s as well. 

Does anyone have any recommendations?

Thank you for your time!
