Re: [gentoo-server] iptables && fail2ban

[mrfroasty <mrfroasty@gmail.com>]

Hello,

I have setup iptables and fail2ban, but I am curios that this line of
defense seem not to work and ban me if i do this:
#wget ftp://mysql:xxxx@fileserver

I have seen a script kido, doing that and firewall just didnt respond to
him or atleast not on the logs that he had been banned when he tried that.
The firewall does ban or respond if I do this:
#wget ftp://foo:pass@fileserver

Probably he could have been banned if used a different user, but not
mysql...I am confused...any clue? :-D

Thanks...
