Well, I don't know, I did say I was a total fail2ban newbie. :-)

I just did 'apt install fail2ban' and that's all, I did check that
fail2ban was running but no more.

So I guess you're saying that I need to install/configure something to
do with ip_tables, yes?

I have 'iptables' installed from the Ubuntu repositories.

Ah, looking at /lib/modules I don't have the one referenced above:-

    chris@isbdGandi$ ls -l /lib/modules
    total 20
    drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jan  5  2017 3.10.103-xenU-33-adcc8c8-x86_64
    drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jun 25  2017 3.10.105-xenU-34-082da8f-x86_64
    drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Sep 19  2014 3.10.42-xenU-12-e888729-x86_64
    drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Oct 22  2015 3.10.62-xenU-25-0e6777a-x86_64
    drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Oct 16  2016 3.10.99-xenU-26-7336ef7-x86_64

So how do I get the one that's needed?  What is it a part of?
