README
Fail2Ban scans log files like /var/log/pwdfail and bans IP that makes too many password failures. It updates firewall rules to reject the IP address. These rules can be defined by the user. Fail2Ban can read multiple log files such as sshd, Apache web server, postfix and others. To install the bash completion script, pass BASH_COMPLETION=yes to the SlackBuild, for example BASH_COMPLETION=yes ./fail2ban.SlackBuild See README.SBo for configuration and upgrade help.
