Hello Bill,
there is no Load-Balancer on the machine. The machine is a simple
webnode, where a loadbalancer sends requests to, which are then answered
by the node - directly to the requesting client.
This is done by simple iptable rules:
root@xxx:/etc/network/if-pre-up.d# iptables -L -t nat
Chain PREROUTING (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
DNAT tcp -- anywhere 185.55.25.xxx tcp dpt:http
to:185.55.25.xxx:80
DNAT tcp -- anywhere 185.55.25.xxx tcp dpt:https
to:185.55.25.xxx:443
it seems like f2b has trouble managing it's chains on my machine. The
chains just vanish at some point.
root@xxx:~# iptables -L -n
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
They seem to get lost - and afterwards I get the "already banned"
entries in the log.
Before the "already banned" problem - this seems to happen:

something wrong going on here.

As far as I know, fail2ban never "reloads" the firewall rules.
fail2ban just manages its chains. Perhaps there's something
in the "load-balancer" doing this.
You should list your action rules and jail.
-> I have a startup script, that sets the Firewall NAT rules on every
startup of the system in RC4.
iptables defaults to -t filter which is what your including here. You
should be using -t nat if you think it's changing the NAT rules.

Thank you Steve, for your answer.
To your questions:
How do you have the load balanced rules set? are they persistent in a
file that is always run from server start up?
-> I have a startup script, that sets the Firewall NAT rules on every startup
of the system in RC4.
Every few hours f2b reloads the Firewall rules from its database (according to
the log) and when that happens the NAT rules vanish from my server - leading to
a STOP in service, as the loadbalancing breaks.
The time this happens is every few hours and always goes hand in hand with the time in
the f2b log where the system does the before mentioned process of "resetting"
and loading stuff from its database.
So I have a strong bias towards f2b being the "culprit" as this is the only
process that fiddles around with the IPtables in the first instance.
I also noticed very strange things:

After an explicit restart, the system seems to be up and running again ...
I feel a bit at loss here ...
Thanks for any hints!

By design, f2b (when restarting) unblocks all blocked IP addresses
within its own DB, it then removes the f2b chains from iptables. It then
starts up creating the chains and re-adds the IP's that are within the
selected time scale of bans.
It does not remove anything other than its own chains in IPtables.
How do you have the load balanced rules set? are they persistent in a
file that is always run from server start up?
I have a reset firewall script that once f2b is shutdown, i run and it
reloads my own pre-set rules on iptables, then i fire up f2b, i've never
had it remove rules, or chains that are not starting "f2b-chainname"
(i.e f2b-php-url-open) etc.
if you do a iptables -n -L do your f2b chains all start with chain f2b- ?
if the f2b chains are missing and all your rules are not starting as
above, i suppose there is a chance it could remove rules it never
created, although i would doubt that.
I hope this helps a little.
