Hi,

I was running fail2ban now for about one year. Suddenly it stopped working. Does anyone know what could be a reason?

I tried to restart it but the same. I tried to stop iptables and than stop fail2ban, that start fail2ban. In log everything is fine.

[root@fs1 log]# iptables -L
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination        
fail2ban-freeswitch-tcp  all  --  anywhere             anywhere           
fail2ban-freeswitch-udp  all  --  anywhere             anywhere           

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination        

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination        

Chain fail2ban-freeswitch-tcp (1 references)
target     prot opt source               destination        
RETURN     all  --  anywhere             anywhere           

Chain fail2ban-freeswitch-udp (1 references)
target     prot opt source               destination        
RETURN     all  --  anywhere             anywhere           
[root@fs1 log]#

I tried with wrong pass but fail2ban does not ban ip (I also look in white liste, but there is no problem).

Thanks!
