Once you install the package, you can start using fail2ban by:
|
|
1. chmod +x /etc/rc.d/rc.fail2ban
|
|
2. /etc/rc.d/rc.fail2ban start
|
|
|
|
Additionally, you can add the following to rc.local for automatic startup
|
|
if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.fail2ban ]; then
|
|
/etc/rc.d/rc.fail2ban start
|
|
fi
|
|
|
|
and add the following to rc.local_shutdown to stop fail2ban at shutdown
|
|
if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.fail2ban ]; then
|
|
/etc/rc.d/rc.fail2ban stop
|
|
fi
|
|
|
|
The package contains logrotate script copied from fail2ban manual,
|
|
and modified to reflect Slackware packaging. You can find
|
|

UPGRADING:
|
|
|
|
Please make sure you have all your modifications done to .local files instead of
|
|
.conf files.
|
|
|
|
Making modifications to .local files is the recommended practice as per the
|
|
software manual. Each .conf file is overridden by equivalent .local file.
|
|
Please refer Configuration section in fail2ban manual.
