• Debian 11 is approaching its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.80 will be the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

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][email protected][/email]", sender="[email][email protected][/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.
