We might want to look at all the options in this space again at some

to stop working. ;(

FWIW fail2ban _is_ porting to journald.


But fail2ban still does not support IPv6, which is mildly irritating. Further they seem to be dragging their feet about the issue, even though a few people have tried making patches for it. I believe it has something to do with the way it is implemented, which would require a partial rewrite ideally. Also there has been a debate on setting different IPv6 subnet bans, which is where partially the hold-up rests.

I hope the issue gets resolved soon.
