[asterisk-users] file2ban

[arcopix at erihon.com]

Hello,

That is relatively easy :)

fail2ban is actually executing a command. Check out the actions configs
that are stored in your fail2ban directory. E.g:
> ls -1 /etc/fail2ban/action.d/ 

You can write your own script (bash/php/perl/C/you name it) that inputs
the information in the DB or attempt to use something like:
> echo "INSERT INTO ban_addresses VALUES ('<ip>');" | mysql -u someuser -p'somepass'
However I am not sure if this solution will work under fail2ban
(forwarding output to another app via pipe)

Regards,
Stefan Lekov
