** Description changed: - The default install of fail2ban has "/etc/fail2ban/jail.conf" option "backend=auto", which watches "/var/log/auth.log", which in 16.04 is an empty file on the default configuration of sshd (it logs verbosely to journalctl). + The default install of fail2ban in Xenial has "/etc/fail2ban/jail.conf" option "backend=auto", which watches "/var/log/auth.log", which in 16.04 is an empty file on the default configuration of sshd (it logs verbosely to journalctl).
