Yeah, I’m using Fail2ban quite aggressively.
If you access my reverse proxy over HTTP(S) and decide to do something naughty, you’ll end up in my eternal black hole.
And no, I’m not disclosing which rules I use. Hehe.
That said, I did discover a small glitch in my setup.
I accidentally banned myself.
Well… technically I banned Ansible from connecting to the machine to update the system.
Yeah. Nice one.
Turns out banning your own local /24 is not the brightest move.
OOPS.
Fixed that.
Brain, unbanned, out.
