Of course fail2ban is not a Parallels product, but it seems that the implementation into Plesk has a bug.
I activated all jails (including apache-auth).
I expect that this jail does only ban an IP when I have a htaccess-secured directory and I enter the password wrong several times.
But this jail also bans when opening a page several times which has an htaccess-file with this content:
Maybe fail2ban reads a wrong string from the error.log, which can be adjusted (?) in the fail2ban config, which is shipped with Plesk12 (?).
