  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Question Fail2ban emails with logs

Danix4u

New Pleskian
I am new to fail2ban I just migrated from Cpanel/CSF/LFD to Plesk/fail2ban.

I need to get Fail2ban to start sending me emails with logs/hitblocks and whois, I have the below action config from Plesk, but not able to make it send me logs or block hits for that IP.

Can you someone help please!?

[ssh]
enabled = true
filter = sshd
action = iptables[name=SSH, port=22, protocol=tcp]
sendmail-whois[dest="[email]user2000@gmail.com[/email]", sender="[email]user2000@domain.com[/email]", sendername="Fail2Ban", name="Fail2Ban", logpath="/var/log/secure"]
logpath = /var/log/secure
maxretry = 5
 
Any related errors in fail2ban or mail logs?
Also, make sure that actionban section in not commented in /etc/fail2ban/action.d/sendmail.conf and /etc/fail2ban/action.d/sendmail-common.conf files.
