hi. I'm using 0.8.6-3wheezy3build0.12.04.1 on Ubuntu 12 from repository. Today 
I ran into a strange issue.

Nov 25 12:37:00 web pure-ftpd: ([email protected]) [WARNING] Authentication failed 
for user [defaultparters]
Nov 25 12:39:09 web pure-ftpd: ([email protected]) [WARNING] Authentication failed 
for user [defaultparters]

and in fail2ban:
2015-11-25 12:39:11,790 fail2ban.actions: WARNING [pureftpd] Ban 46.44.1.2

and this is already something wrong, because in my jail.local:
[pureftpd]
enabled  = true
port     = ftp
filter   = pureftpd
logpath  = /var/log/syslog
maxretry = 3
bantime = 7200

so, shouldn't it have blocked after the THIRD failed login?
Neverthless, after 2h:
2015-11-25 14:39:12,528 fail2ban.actions: WARNING [pureftpd] Unban 46.44.1.2

but another weirdness happens later on:
2015-11-25 15:46:13,421 fail2ban.actions: WARNING [pureftpd] Ban 46.44.1.2

weirdness because there is no failed authentication from that IP logged in 
syslog! 
How's this possible? Did I do something wrong in the config?


This is my full jail.local:
[DEFAULT]
ignoreip = 127.0.0.1 

[pureftpd]
enabled  = true
port     = ftp
filter   = pureftpd
logpath  = /var/log/syslog
maxretry = 3
bantime = 7200

[dovecot-pop3imap]
enabled = true
filter = dovecot-pop3imap
action = iptables-multiport[name=dovecot-pop3imap, 
port="pop3,pop3s,imap,imaps", protocol=tcp]
logpath = /var/log/mail.log
maxretry = 5

[sasl]
enabled  = true
port     = smtp
filter   = postfix-sasl
logpath  = /var/log/mail.log
maxretry = 3
bantime = 7200

[apache-wordpress]
enabled = true
banaction = iptables-allports
bantime = 7200
port = all
filter = apache-wordpress
logpath = /var/log/apache2/other_vhosts_access.log
maxretry = 5

[apache-joomla]
enabled = false
banaction = iptables-allports
bantime = 7200
port = all
filter = apache-joomla
logpath = /var/log/apache2/other_vhosts_access.log
maxretry = 5
